THE AX HEAD PROPHECY
Recently during prayer I had a riveting revelation regarding the axe head in 2nd Kings 6. Following that initial insight into this often overlooked miracle I have had a sequence of other prophetic revelations on this text. I have read it many times in the past but have never heard any real commentary referencing this passage � until now by the Holy Spirit.
The actual events leading up to this miracle of the ax head that literally defied gravity and every law of physics are equally as important. I heard with sudden clarity from the Lord: 2017 or more accurately 5777 on the Jewish calendar is the year of the �Ax Head.� A year of sudden and overwhelming restoration on levels and dimensions that �no eye has seen nor ear heard.� It will surely defy everything you have imagined �exceedingly and abundantly more than you can imagine or ask.�
GLOBAL EXPANSION AND SUDDEN GROWTH: THE ISAIAH 54 EFFECT
The driving force behind these circumstance in 2nd Kings was the need to expand. In verse 1 the company of the prophets exclaimed, �The place where we meet with you is too small for us�� Elisha agrees and they proceed to the Jordan and cut wood and build a new place for the prophets to gather.
The prophet Isaiah had experienced the same prophetic precedent when he urged Israel in Isaiah 54:2 to "Enlarge your house; build an addition. Spread out your home, and spare no expense! Past restraint and reluctance to obey what we know clearly to be the voice of the Lord will no longer define our future efforts as He unhinges even the most radical vision and expectation. Doors will surely open that no man can close.
UNPRECEDENTED PROPHETIC COMMISSIONING IS COMING
It�s important to point out in verse 1 the prophetic commissioning that followed their request to expand the house of the prophets. Elisha answered and said, �GO!� You see, expansion of any kind must first come with a prophetic commissioning � a �go ye� that can propel the people into the place of explosive increase. It�s no better illustrated than in 2nd Kings 6:1. Elisha answered, �Go��
In Ruth 2:22 at another epic crossroads of restoration Naomi commissions Ruth into the field of Boaz to glean with the harvesters. A type and shadow of the redemption that looms ahead of this present generations of harvesters. �And Naomi said unto Ruth her daughter in law, It is good, my daughter, that thou go out with his maidens, that they meet thee not in any other field.� Notice even the numbers in this scripture echo a great commission to come when Jesus would send his early disciples 2 by to 2 into the uttermost parts of the world.
LEADERS LEADING PROPHETS GOING: THE GREATEST COMMISSION
Verse 3 is paramount. �They asked the prophet Elisha to go with them�� The convenience of letting others do the work was not sufficient here and Elisha knew it as he exclaimed, �I will go!� The lack of expansion of the Kingdom of God and the knowledge of God in the world does not entirely rest on those that are seemingly unwilling to go; but rather the church leaders, prophets and pastors NOT WILLING TO GO WITH THEM.
Elisha�s response was the key to success or failure in this unfolding scenario. In Joshua 3 God gave instructions to Israel again how to receive unprecedented breakthrough when it seemed everything thwarted them. It was only when the priests, the 12 leaders selected from the 12 tribes got their feet wet in the water FIRST that their circumstances changed. God is calling leaders in every spiritual quadrant to lead the charge, to step into the often tumultuous waters of present circumstance and lead.
Joshua 3:13: �And as soon as the priests who carry the ark of the LORD--the Lord of all the earth--set foot in the Jordan, its waters flowing downstream will be cut off and stand up in a heap." A sweeping wave of obedience is about to crash down on the shores of this world as many that have disqualified themselves or have been disqualified themselves will exclaim like the Shepherd boy transformed into a king, �Here am I, send me!� (Psalm 2:8)
When they arrived at the Jordan in verse 4 the building of the prophet�s gathering place commenced. What followed is one of the most unique miracles in the Bible.� As one of them was cutting down a tree, the iron ax head fell into the water. "Oh no, my lord!" he cried out. "It was borrowed!" � 2nd Kings 6:5
The Iron Age was between 1200 � 500 BC placing Elisha in 2nd Kings 6 approximately 856 BC. This iron ax-head was of great value and clearly was not easily accessible thus the despair of the man in verse 5, �Oh no, my lord� it was borrowed!� Not only was it of great value � but it did not belong to the man � he had borrowed it!
THE AXE HEAD PROPHECY AND THE BREAKING OF DEBT: A YEAR OF JUBILEE
The axe heads are even now appearing from the depths form where they were lost. I am even now dredging the depths and bringing back those things lost and even long forgotten says the Lord. Prophetic words weathered and worn no longer visible will suddenly roar off the pages of posterity redefining the future even overnight. Isaiah 66:8 will be fulfilled in this generation: �Who has ever seen anything as strange as this? Who ever heard of such a thing? Has a nation ever been born in a single day? Has a country ever come forth in a mere moment?�
Your vision and dreams that have been indentured will be set free like a bird from a cage; the vision and dreams that were long ago buried will spring up like an army of dry bones and I will renew them like the eagle. The very gallows of current circumstances meant for your demise will prove to be for your good as I spring the trap of the fowler says the Lord.
For even now I am declaring Jubilee this year of 5777 over you that will move you from only a mere �calling� into a sending � a commissioning. I have ordained you as a voice to the nations. To, �to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant." Even as I commissioned the 70 I am decreeing a new commissioning over the land; a 70 x�s 7 of healing and forgiveness and many will cry, �Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!� as I heal the land where their feed tread. � Luke 18:39, Jeremiah 1:10
Failed attempts and false starts will no longer define you as the finish line of unfinished business looms ahead. I will surely complete the good work I have begun. A season of 70, and 70 x�s 7 will prevail as forgiveness and commissioning eclipses the failure. You are the head not the tail.
As Ruth was thrust into the field by her misfortune to bring unprecedented restoration so will you. As salvation came to the house of Zacchaeus I will surely do this for you. �Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house�� � Luke 19:9
For even now the ax heads are rising; that which has been lost, broken, abandoned and dilapidated. From the depths they are rising, in cities and states they are rising, in governments and nations they are rising. In home and families they are rising, in heads of states and in government they are rising.
Long forgotten destinies, calling and commissioning and like Isaac the wells will be re-dug; the stubborn resistance will give way now eclipsed by a 100 fold breakthrough. The stubborn stones of despair will be cast up and hi-way for our God shall be prepared. Even now these things are coming to pass � look up! Look up! Your redemption draws nigh.
�The prophet asked, "Where did it drop in?" When he showed him the spot, Elisha cut off a branch, threw it in at that spot, and made the ax head float�� � 2nd Kings 6:6

CHARLOTTE
NORTH CAROLINA: A HIDING
PLACE AND A MOUNTAIN OF
PRAYER
In 1971 the book �The Hiding
Place� was published to a
worldwide audience capturing
in its pages the story of
Corrie Ten Boom and her
family who secreted the Jews
in the Dutch town of Haarlem
from the encroaching Nazis.
Corrie and her sister Betsie
were imprisoned across
Germany in infamous
concentration camps such as
Scheveningen, Vught and
finally Ravensbr�ck.
Corrie lost her sister and
father during these
harrowing times and the
timeless story of
forgiveness and redemption
was born appropriately
titled, THE HIDING PLACE.
Charlotte, NC has its own
very unique history with the
Jewish people dating back to
its roots. There were 2,000
Jewish people living there
by 1800 which was more than
in any other city in America
� even New York.
I saw a hidden network as
well in Charlotte of
businesses, bankers,
entrepreneurs, politicians
and philanthropists of all
ages and races that were in
a position like Daniel was
in Babylon and Joseph was in
Egypt. They were postured
for breakthrough that would
inevitably bring deliverance
and blessing for a far
greater group of people than
this one city �but rather an
entire nation. Charlotte,
NC is God�s HIDING PLACE.
GOD�S RADAR OF REVIVAL
AND MOUNTAINS OF PRAYER
I saw pulsating blips on a
radar that I knew were
cities and regions and the
blip pulsated out to at
least a 100 mile radius.
They were epicenters and
cities of refuge across the
nation that would be the
last lines of defense in
these climatic moments of
history that the Bible
clearly describes. Charlotte,
NC was one of the largest
blips on this �Radar
of Revival."
I saw others equally as
large in New England, the
Pacific Northwest,
California, Florida, the
Midwest and Canada. I saw El
Paso, TX Providence, RI and
other smaller blips across
the nation. They were cities
of revival and refuge - not
only for the wayward and
weary but for businesses,
finances and fiscal
breakthroughs as well.
They were God�s �Mountains
of Prayer� like in South
Korea. They were being
formed
by many decades,
even centuries, rising up
out of the mire of political
agenda, power struggles and
a plethora of other
worldly
and spiritual tug-a-wars. They
were Mountains of Prayers
and refuge in the coming
storms and persecutions.
Prayer Mountain in South
Korea was created out of
necessity as the invading
armies imposed laws
that
outlawed any worship other
than their own religions
such as Shinto and Buddhism.
This persecution prompted a
mighty prayer movement that
was likened to Mark 1:35 as
they rose up during the
night hours and resorted to
the mountains undetected to
pray. One account says, �that
anyone who passed by those
mountains would hear the
cries and weeping of the men
and women who were storming
heaven with their sad plight
and asking God to change
their situation��
Charlotte, NC and its
outlying areas are fast
becoming one of God�s great
Mountains of Prayer and will
inevitably fulfill the
ancient prophetic mandate in
Isaiah 56:7, �I will
bring to My holy mountain
and give them joy in My
house of prayer. Their burnt
offerings and sacrifices
will be accepted on My
altar; for My house will be
called a house of prayer for
all nations."
THE DANIEL DICHOTOMY AND
NEW WINE SKINS
Cities such as Charlotte
will carry a dynamic to
radically redefine current
mind-sets and doctrine. I
saw two opposing forces
entrenching themselves in;
one was of the belief that
no one would suffer any
hardship; the others fully
knew we would and were
preparing for it by prayer
and supplication.
Suddenly in a flash, I saw
both sides joining forces
for a common cause like
David in 1st Samuel
17:28 when he cried to his
brothers, �Is
there not a cause?� The
� Goliath's� of our time
will be the very forces that
unite these two opposing
beliefs or dichotomies.
From this unity, because of
the seemingly insurmountable
odds against them, God will
command a blessing and a Psalm
133 blessing will
come into full effect.
Charlotte, NC and the
outlying region will be a
linchpin that will cause
these two sides to come
together like a �wheel
within a wheel� bringing the
Gospel to the nations of the
world. It will be an
entirely new wine-skin and
the mechanics of previous
methodology that seemed
impossible for the church to
shed will fall off like
water in the coming days. Charlotte
is God�s linchpin of a great
harvest unlike anything in
the history of the world or
the church.
I saw a great clock over
Charlotte and it was fast
approaching the 11th hour
and there was a great
mustering of the army of God
� the laborers are being
called to the front
lines like never before.
With a �Daniel� mindset and
a Daniel like prayer they
were prevailing greatly in
the arenas of battle.
The fierce persecution often
coming from the most
unlikely places did not
deter their resolve to see
the lost saved and the
preaching of the Gospel to
the poor. Soup kitchens,
outreaches to the streets
and places of refuge were as
common as breathing as an
Acts 5:15 spirit rested on
entire cities.
�As a result, they would
carry the sick out into the
streets and lay them on cots
and mats so that when Peter
came by, at least his shadow
might fall on some of them.�
� Acts 5:15.

cross
over

pour
out

12:12)
I
WILL
LIGHT
THE
LAMP
AND
FIND
THE
COIN
"Or
suppose
a
woman
has
ten
silver
coins
and
loses
one.
Doesn't
she
light
a
lamp,
sweep
the
house
and
search
carefully
until
she
finds
it?"
-
Luke
15:8
For
even
now I
am
lighting
a
lamp
of
evangelism
in
New
Bern and
in
North
Carolina
and
the
treasures
out
of
darkness
will
now
appear.
For
many
have
said, "Can
any
good
thing
come
from
here?"
But
I
say
even
now
the
latter
rain
and
the
latter
house
will
be
seen
and
I
will
surely
set
the
captives
free. Listen,
there
is a
sound
of
an
abundance
of
rain!
- 1
Kings
18:41
I
will
even
now
light
the
lamp
of
evangelism
and
the
young
and
the
old
shall
go
two
by
two.
They
will
surely
return
with
joy.
They
will
do
those
things
that
I
do.
They
will
go
to
the
places
where
I go
: "I
needed
clothes
and
you
clothed
me,
I
was
sick
and
you
looked
after
me,
I
was
in
prison
and
you
came
to
visit
me." You
will
do
the
first
works, New
Bern
you
will
return
to
your
first
love. (Matthew
25:36)
A
SHADOW
WILL
BE
SEEN
IN
THE
STREETS
AGAIN
"To
the
extent
that
they
brought
forth
the
sick
into
the
streets,
and
laid
them
on
beds
and
couches,
that
at
the
least
the
shadow
of
Peter
passing
by
might
overshadow
some
of
them."
-
Acts
5:15
For
even
now
I am
building
a
house
that
cannot
be
made
with
hands,
even
now
I am
leading
many
to
the
hi-ways
and
bi-ways
and
the
shadow
of
My
presence
shall
surely
be
seen.
Many
will
be
saved,
many
will
be
healed
and
those
with
a
broken
heart
shall
be
whole.
As
you
go
the
shadow
will
grow
and
many
will
come
to
know
My
salvation.
Multitudes
in
the
valley
of
decision.
Multitudes
in
the
valley
of
decision.
In
the
Ghetto
and
in
the
projects
and
those
places
many
shun
shall
surely
be
an
ensign
of
revival
in
these
days.
They
will
be a
city
upon
a
hill
that
cannot
be
hidden.
I
will
be
seen
under
the
bridges
and
those
very
places
where
many
avoid.
Those
very
places
that
are
labeled
"offscouring
and
outcast";
I
will
blow
on
the
dry
bones.
An
exceeding
and
mighty
army.
For
surely
now
the
Kairos
time
has
come
to
North
Carolina
and
New
Bern
shall
once
again
be a
capitol
city
- a
capitol
city
of
reformation
and
reconciliation.

Look
up!
Your
redemption
draws
nigh.
Like

in

night
I am
coming
for
you
New

City
and
even
now
the
blessings
of
the
Lord
are
about
to
overtake
you.
For
you
have
been
like
a
widow
grieved
for
her
children
and
in
Ramah
there
was
much
weeping
but
now
this
is
what

LENAPE
TRIBE,
DAVID
BRAINERD
AND
THE
MORAVIANS
My
people
the
Lenape
who
once
welcomed
you
to
this
place
I
have
put
a
new
song
in
their
hearts;
even
in
this
season
they
will
be
like
a
tree
planted
by
the
water
that
will
be
for
the
healing
of
the
nations.
My
blessing
will
visit
them
like
a
summer
snow.
Even
as
they
stood
with
the
likes
of
Brainerd
and
the
Moravians
forming
a
three-fold
cord;
I
will
once
again
cause
a
covenant
to
be
between
you
and
them.
A
canvas
of
many
colors
is
even
now
being
unfurled. "He
will
establish
the
border
of
the
widow." -
Proverbs
15:25
This
latter
house
will
be
greater
than
the
former
says
the
Lord
and
this
latter
rain
will
be
seen
from
NYC
to
Canada,
from
New
Jersey
to
Oklahoma
as I
re-establish
the
borders
of
the
widow
and
orphan
says
the
Lord.
I
will
even
now
hasten
these
things
to
come
to
pass.
I
will
even
now "rebuild
the
ancient
ruins,
repairing
cities
destroyed
long
ago.
They
will
revive
them,
though
they
have
been
deserted

FULTON
STREET
REVIVAL
AND
A
NEW
WINE
SKIN
CALLED
WALL
STREET
Over
150
years
ago
I
opened
the
flood
gates
of
Salvation
and
even
now
I am
re-digging
the
well
of
prayer
and
many
will
be
saved
say�s
the
Lord.
I
will
lift
up
the
uncomely
parts
and
even
now
they
will
be
bestowed
more
honor
and
the
one's
long
forgotten
will
be
remembered.
Once
again
I
will
reach
the
uttermost
parts
of
the
earth
through
your
prayer
and
the
nations
of
the
world
will
hear
the
Good
News.
The
nation's
of
the
world
will
see
your
light
as
My
glory
arises
and
shines
upon
you.
For
in
the
very
place
of
your
wealth
and
prosperity
I
will
breathe
on
the
dry
bones
and
a
great
and
exceeding
army
will
arise.
For
I
will
release
a
spirit
of
intercession
and
prayer
on
Wall
Street
and
Manhattan
and
many
will
bow
down
before
Me
there.
Many
will
cry
out
as
Rachel,
"Give
me
children
or I
did!"
Even
in
this
place
you
will
hear
my
voice
like
thunder
and
like
a
Saul
of
Tarsus
many
will
be
smitten
and
saved.
The
voice
of
the
prophet
and
the
apostle
will
be
heard
here
once
again;
the
voice
of
the
Lord
will
be
heard
upon
the
waters.
(Genesis
30:1)
IN
THE
SUBWAYS
A
NEW
SOUND
WILL
BE
HEARD
As I
moved
in
the
catacombs
of
Rome
so
shall
I
move
in
the
subways
of
New
York
City
and
beyond.
For
in
these
dark
places
and
edifices
the
voice
of
the
Evangelist
will
be
heard
nor
shall
they
gainsay
or
rebuke
them.
They
will
be a
Stephen
to
many
and
even
more
will
be
saved
and
like
Philip
and
the
Ethiopian
Eunuch
the
nations
of
the
world
will
hear
the
Gospel.
For
the
enemy
would
mean
to
harm
you
but
what
was
meant
for
your
only
evil
I
have
meant
for
your
Good
and
many
will
see
it
and
be
glad.
Many
will
see
it
and
be
glad.
Watch
and
see
there
beneath
the
streets
the
deliverance
of
the
Lord!
Grand
Central
Station will
reverberate
with
the
sounds
of
salvation
as
millions
hear
the
word
of
the
Lord.
Multitudes,
multitudes
in
this
great
Valley
of
Decision
and
even
now
I am
opening
the
windows
of
Heaven
over
you.
For
I
saw
the
plight
of
your
forefathers
and
the
many
that
came
before
you
and
in
this
very
place
My
liberty
will
be
clearly
seen
says
the
Lord
-
the
nations
of
the
world
that
have
come
to
your
gates
will
clearly
see, �and
I
will
cause
wonders
in
the
heavens
above
and
signs
on
the
earth
below--blood
and
fire
and
clouds
of
smoke�� -
Acts
2:19.
JEWS
FOR
JESUS
AND
A
CITY
OF
REFUGE
Once
again
you
will
be
the �Light
of
the
world
and
the
salt
of
the
earth� for
in
your
borders
Israel
shall
find
a
way
of
escape
and
many
will
be
saved.
I
will
cause
them
that
have
borne
no
fruit
to
flourish
and
those
that
have
been
in
exile
to
be
found.
A
great
missionary
wave
will
originate
from
the
Jewish
people
of
New
York
City
and
like
Paul
leaving
Antioch
I
will
send
you
to
the
uttermost
parts
of
the
earth;
the
Jewish
people
of
this
city
shall
surely
hear
a MACEDONIAN
CALL.
The
gates
of
hell
will
not
prevail
against
them
nor
will
be
they
be
displaced
any
more.
IRELAND,
SCOTLAND
AND
THE
FAULT
LINES
OF
REVIVAL
A
great
fault-line
of
revival
lies
between
these
nations
and
cities
and
even
now
I
will
cause
it
to
shake.
I
will
move
on
the
tops
of
their
mountains
and
with
a
Consuming
Fire
draw
many
to
Me.
For
in
famine
you
came
to
these
shores
and
in
My
glory
you
shall
return
to
them.
I
will
honor
you
where
only
once
dwelt
your
enemies
and
I
will
sit
you
beside
kings
for
My
sake
and
it
will
turn
to
you
as a
witness.
For
have
not
I
put
coal
form
the
alter
in
Heaven
on
your
lips
and
have
not
you
cried, �Here
am
I,
send
me!� My
fire
will
go
before
you
and
surely
I am
your
rear-guard.
Even
now
the
jet-stream
of
revival
between
these
places
is
stirring
and
the
waters
are
moving
and
many
will
hear
the
voice
of
the
Lord.
Many
will
hear
the
voice
of
the
Lord
and
I
will
surely
confirm
My
word
with
signs
following.
O
mothers
of
Ireland
you
shall
surely
see
the
hand
of
God
in
the
land
of
the
living
as a
Day
of
Remembrance
visits
your
land.
A
day
of
visitation
and
the
blood
of
your
forefathers
that
even
now
cries
out
from
the
ground
will
surely
be
redeemed.
Surely
it
will
be
redeemed. �Look
at
the
nations
and
watch--
and
be
utterly
amazed.
For
I am
going
to
do
something
in
your
days
that
you
would
not
believe,
even
if
you
were
told.� �
Habakkuk
1:5
STATEN
ISLAND,
BROOKLY
AND
QUEENS
THE
GATES
OF
THE
CITY
WILL
BE
OPENED
"In
that
day,
everyone
in
the
land
of
Judah
will
sing
this
song:
Our
city
is
strong!
We
are
surrounded
by
the
walls
of
God's
salvation.
Open
the
gates,
that
the
righteous
nation
that
keeps
faith
may
enter
in."
-
Isaiah
26:1-2
For
in
these
very
places
I
will
sound
an
alarm;
a
call
for
Salvation
and
many
in
her
streets
will
rejoice.
For
even
this
year
I am
calling
your
Prodigal's
home
and
the
table
of
Salvation
will
be
set. Kill
the
fatted
calf
says
the
Lord,
kill
the
fatted
calf! For
the
sons
and
daughters
of
New
York
are
coming
home! The
sons
and
daughter
of
New
York
are
coming
home.
Brooklyn
will
be
as a
sign-post,
a
mile
marker
of
your
progress
as
the
balances
are
tipped
in
your
favor.
Queens
will
be a
"City
upon
a
hill
that
cannot
be
hid"
as I
trim
the
wick
of
revival
and
the
lines
of
demarcation
are
removed.
For
even
in
this
day
the
two
will
be
one
says
the
Lord,
the
two
will
be
one.
On
Staten
Island
I
will
redeem
the
blood
that
was
shed
and
the
sleight
of
hand
that
betrayed
many.
I
will
restore
your
posterity
and
the
names
of
those
long
forgotten
will
I
now
remember,
they
will
be
remembered
says
the
Lord. "The
voice
of
your
brother�s
blood
is
crying
to
me
from
the
ground..." -
Genesis
4:10
A
CROSS
AND
A
SWITCH
BLADE
AND
OTHER
ANOMALIES
I
will
do
it
again
says
the
Lord,
I
will
do
it
again.
I
will
take
the
cross
and
the
switchblade
and
like
Jonathan
and
David
I
will
exchange
them
one
for
the
other;
I
will
give
you
a
heart
of
flesh
for
a
heart
of
stone.
The
sound
of
Salvation
will
roar
through
yours
streets
again
and
the
fruit
of
those
seeds
that
have
fallen
will
now
produce
a
great
harvest.
I
will
surely
fill
the
largest
venues
and
stadiums
with
the
Gospel
such
has
not
been
seen
for
many
years.
From
Hell's
Kitchen
to
Harlem
My
fame
shall
spread
abroad
and
on
the
lips
of
your
children
shall
be
Salvation.
From
Brownsville
borough
to
Jamaica
I
will
re-dig
the
wells
of
revival
and
the
rivers
will
be
seen
in
the
desolate
heights
says
the
Lord.
Form
the
desolate
hieghts. "I
will
make
rivers
flow
on
barren
heights,
and
springs
within
the
valleys.
I
will
turn
the
desert
into
pools
of
water,
and
the
parched
ground
into
springs." -
Isaiah
41:18
From
the
Bronx
and
Hunts
Point,
Soundview,
Flushing
and
Maspeth
the
sound
of
REVIVAL
and
RENAISSANCE
will
be
heard
as I
break
up
the
fallow
ground.
For
I
have
heard
the
cry
of
your
people
and
I
will
cause
you
even
now
to
cast
your
nets
on
the
other
side
of
the
boat.
I
will
even
now
cause
a
great
catch,
an
anomaly,
a
deep
crying
out
to
deep
as
the
souls
of
men
cry
out.
I
have
shaken
the
tree
says
the
Lord
and
the
seeds
that
have
fallen
to
the
ground
and
died
will
now
bear
much
fruit.
They
will
bear
much
fruit
says
the
Lord,
they
will
certainly
bear
much
fruit.

See
important
updates
below
as
Chad
Taylor
is
making
a
long
awaited
return
to
the
interior
of
Alaska
in
July...
THE
LION:
AN
AWAKENING
The
lion
hath
roared,
who
will
not
fear?
the
Lord
GOD
hath
spoken,
who
can
but
prophesy?"
-
Amos
3:8
I
heard
the
roar
of a
lion
from
Alaska;
a
roar
of
awakening
and
ingathering
as
multitudes
were
saved,
it
was
the
sound
of
many
waters.
I
heard
the
words
of
Isaiah
trumpeting
over
the
land
to
the
North
-
Alaska:
"Enlarge
the
location
of
your
tent,
let
the
curtains
of
your
dwellings
be
stretched
wide, and
don't
hold
back.
Lengthen
your
cords;
strengthen
your
stakes..."
-
Isaiah
54:2
It
is a PHILIP
MOMENT for
Alaska
as
the
Gospel
of
Salvation
will
be
published
to
the
uttermost
parts
of
the
earth
as
the
chariots
of
visitation
now
arrive. "I
will
show
wonders
in
the
heaven
above
and
signs
on
the
earth
below,
blood
and
fire
and
billows
of
smoke." -
Acts
2:9.
Like
the
roaring
of a
lion
the
Good
News
will
be
preached.
A
sounding
board
to
the
nations
a
jet-stream
of
grace
and
mercy.
The
riptide
of
previous
set-backs
will
no
longer
hold
you
as I
catapolt
you
foward
suddenly
says
the
Lord.
Even
now
I
will
redeem
the
time.
"And
he
gave
a
great
shout
like
the
roar
of a
lion.
And
when
he
shouted,
the
seven
thunders
answered!" -
Revelation
10:3.
It's
"the
calm
before
the
storm"
as
the
sound
of
an
abundance
of
rain
begins;
a
former
and
latter
rain.
An
accumulation
of
prayers
like
Elijah
are
even
now
rending
the
heavens
as
the
mountains
of
resistance
are
cast
into
the
sea.
The
angel
of
The
Lord
is
even
now
stirring
the
waters.
"On
the
seventh
time,
he
reported,"There's
a
cloud
as
small
as a
man's
hand
coming
from
the
sea."
Then
Elijah
said,
"Go
and
tell
Ahab,
'Get
your
chariot
ready
and
go
down
so
the
rain
doesn't
stop
you!" -
1st
Kings
18:44
THE
LAMB:
THE
KEYS
OF
HELL
AND
DEATH
"And
they
sing
the
song
of
Moses,
the
servant
of
God,
and
the
song
of
the
Lamb,
saying,
�Great
and
amazing
are
your
deeds,
O
Lord
God
the
Almighty!
Just
and
true
are
your
ways,
O
King
of
the
nations!" -
Revelation
15:3.
Surely
this
is
the
Day
of
your
Salvation
says
The
Lord
and
the
gates
of
bronze
and
iron
will
now
be
opened,
�I
will
go
before
you
and
level
the
exalted
places,
I
will
break
in
pieces
the
doors
of
bronze
and
cut
through
the
bars
of
iron;
I
will
give
you
the
treasures
out
of
darkness,
riches
stored
in
secret
places,
so
that
you
may
know
that
I am
the
LORD,
the
God
of
Israel,
who
summons
you
by
name." ALASKA! (Isaiah
45:2-3)
The
Lamb
holds
the
keys
and
has
the
power
to
open
up
the
secret
places
and
open
the
prisons
to
those
who
are
bound
- He
has
the
keys
of
hell
and
death.
The
gates
of
hell
cannot
prevail
against
you
Alaska
and
the
ancient
treatise
of
death
against
your
children
will
now
be
broken.
"This
is
what
the
LORD
says: "Restrain
your
voice
from
weeping
and
your
eyes
from
tears,
for
your
work
will
be
rewarded,"
declares
the
LORD.
"They
will
return
from
the
land
of
the
enemy."
- Jeremiah
31:16
For
even
now
the
gates
are
opening
and
like
calves
from
the
stall
you
will
leap
O
Alaska,
you
will
leap
and
jump
and
the
chains
that
hitherto
hindered
you
will
melt
away.
For
even
now
I
will
once
again
shake
the
prisons
and
the
places
of
your
captivity
and
you
will
indeed
be
free. A
KAIROS
TIME
IS
UPON
YOU.
"And
when
they
had
prayed,
the
place
where
they
had
gathered
together
was
shaken,
and
they
were
all
filled
with
the
Holy
Spirit
and
began
to
speak
the
word
of
God
with
boldness."
-
Acts
4:31
THE
EAGLE:
I
WILL
RENEW
YOUR
STRENGTH
"Like
an
eagle
that
stirs
up
its
nest,
That
hovers
over
its
young,
He
spread
His
wings
and
caught
them,
He
carried
them
on
His
pinions.
He
found
him
in a
desert
land,
and
in
the
howling
waste
of
the
wilderness;
he
encircled
him,
he
cared
for
him,
he
kept
him
as
the
apple
of
his
eye."
-
Deuteronomy
32:10-11
Alaska,
you
are
still
the
apple
of
My
eye
and
in
this
time
I
will
surely
stir
the
nest
and
cause
you
to
rise
up
on
Eagle's
wings.
I
will
renew
your
strength,
and
I
will
renew
your
vision
for
the
salvation
and
deliverance
of
nations;
surely
now, "Look,
I
tell
you,
lift
up
your
eyes,
and
see
that
the
fields
are
white
for
harvest..."
But
for
this
purpose
I
have
appeared
to
you!
Like
Paul
I
will
send
you
to
the
places
Christ
has
not
been
preached
and
multitudes
will
be
saved.
The
Apostolic
DNA
I
have
put
in
you
will
now
be
revealed,
as
never
before
in
your
history,
and
it
will
even
now
impact
the
world
- "Alaska,
you
were
born
for
such
a
time
as
this!"
It
is
an
apostolic
creed
that
I
now
declare
to
you
says
the
Lord: "But
get
up
and
stand
on
your
feet,
because
I've
appeared
to
you
for
the
very
purpose
of
appointing
you
to
be
my
servant
and
witness
of
what
you've
seen
and
of
what
I'll
show
you.
And
I
will
rescue
you
from
both
your
own
people
and
the
Gentiles.
Yes,
I am
sending
you
to
the
Gentiles
- to
open
their
eyes,
so
that
they
may
turn
from
darkness
to
light
and
from
the
power
of
Satan
to
God,
that
they
may
receive
forgiveness
of
sins
and
a
place
among
those
who
are
sanctified
by
faith
in
Me." -
Acts
26:15-18
KODIAK,
KETCHIKAN
AND
KOTZEBUE:
A
THREE-FOLD
CORD
From
these
3
places
I
have
tied
a
three-fold
cord
of
prayer
and
it
will
not
be
severed
says
the
Lord.
I
will
anchor
the
spiritual
pitch
of
the
state
from
these
3
places
and
surely
they
will
withstand
the
coming
storms.
I
will
give
them
buoyancy
and
I
will
be
revealed
in
them
and
in
the
storm,
like
Apostle
Peter,
they
will
walk
on
the
water
and
I
will
surely
walk
with
them. Miracles,
signs
and
wonders
will
surely
follow
you.
Acts
5:15
I
declare
in
your
streets,
public
venues
and
villages
- a
day
of
visitation.
I
will
lift
the
roof
of
religious
restraint
off
of
you
and
surely
the
sick
will
be
lowered
in
for
I
have
made
a
hi-way
in
the
wilderness
for
the
outcast
and
vagabond;
the
poor
and
the
destitute
for
surely
this
scripture
is
fulfilled
in
your
ears: "The
Spirit
of
the
Lord
is
upon
me;
he
has
anointed
me
to
tell
the
Good
News
to
the
poor.
He
has
sent
me
to
announce
release
to
the
prisoners
and
recovery
of
sight
to
the
blind,
to
set
oppressed
people
free..." -
Luke
4:18
I
will
now
make
a
way
for
the
Uncomely
Parts. "But
not
finding
any
way
to
bring
him
in
because
of
the
crowd,
they
went
up
on
the
roof
and
let
him
down
through
the
tiles
with
his
stretcher,
into
the
middle
of
the
crowd,
in
front
of
Jesus..." -
Luke
5:19
From KOTZEBUE I
will
send
the
call
for
workers
and
like
Philip
and
Bartholomew
they
will
see
the
harvest
and GO.
From
this
place
I
will
surely
once
again
give
them
the
nations
for
their
inheritance
and
the
uttermost
parts
of
the
earth
as
their
possession.
(Psalm
2:8)
They
are
wheel
within
a
wheel
and
I
will
even
now
redeem
the
time
and
restore
the
years
that
the
locust
devoured;
I
will
rebuke
the
devourer
and
those
that
kill,
rob
and
steal.
I
will
defend
you
says
the
Lord.
I
will
defend
you.
KODIAK you
will
surely
be
My
first-line
of
defense
and
when
the
enemy
comes
in
like
a
flood
I
will
raise
up
My
standard: KODIAK.
I
will
undo
the
heavy
burdens
and
let
the
oppressed
go
free.
I
will
break
the
cords
of
injustice
and
cause
the
former
and
latter
rain
to
come. The
spirit
of
Esau that
sold
your
inheritance
for
a
piece
of
bread
will
surely
be
blotted
out
in
this
day
says
The
Lord.
I
will
set
the
captives
free!
"Having
canceled
out
the
certificate
of
debt
consisting
of
decrees
against
us,
which
was
hostile
to
us;
and
He
has
taken
it
out
of
the
way,
having
nailed
it
to
the
cross..." -
Colossians
2:14
KETCHIKAN is
My
"Hannah" Says
The
Lord
and
from
her
intercession
the
future
of
Alaska
will
be
secured
and
redefined.
The
song
of
Hannah
shall
surely
be
your
anthem
in
this
Day
of
Salvation
as
the
hand
of
My
deliverance
is
clearly
seen
by
all, "Then
Hannah
prayed
and
said:
"My
heart
rejoices
in
the
LORD;
in
the
LORD
my
horn
is
lifted
high.
My
mouth
boasts
over
my
enemies,
for
I
delight
in
your
deliverance
and
salvation." -

Samuel
2:1
ALASKA
AND
ANCHORAGE:
A
STATE
OF
REFUGE
For
surely
the
nations
will
call
you
blessed
for
in
this
place
of
Alaska
I
have
made
you
a
spiritual
and
moral
high-ground
as
the
lines
of
demarcation
are
clearly
laid
out
- My
plumbline.
I
have
not
forgotten
you
covenant
with
Israel
and
in
this
hour
the
covenant
between
you
will
surely
arise
and
shine
and
many
will
come
to
the
brightness
of
its
rising.
Psalm
46 is
written
over
you
Alaska
and
unfurled
as a
banner
-
many
will
see
it
and
find
courage. "The
Lord
of
hosts
is
with
us;
the
God
of
Jacob
is
our
refuge." -
Psalm
46:11
I
will
give
you
the
orphaned
and
the
widow,
the
refugee
and
the
outcast
and
the
heritage
of
kings
will
be
yours
says
The
Lord. "Arise,
shine,
for
your
light
has
come,
and
the
glory
of
the
LORD
shines
over
you.
For
behold,
darkness
shall
cover
the
earth,
and
thick
darkness
the
peoples;
but
the
LORD
will
arise
upon
you,
and
his
glory
will
be
seen
upon
you.
Nations
will
come
to
your
light,
and
kings
to
the
brightness
of
your
radiance..."
- Isaiah
60:1-3
Alaska,
the
hour
of
your
visitation
has
come!
"They
will
see
your
good
works
and
glorify
God
on
the
day
of
visitation..." -

MILWAUKEE:
A
GATHERING
PLACE
OF
NATIONS
AGAIN
AND
A
WELL
RE-DUG
by
Chad
Taylor
I
see
a
whirlwind
over
Milwaukee
- a
whirlwind
of
God�s
intentions.
You
are
about
to
reap
a
hundred-fold;
like
Jacob
you
have
sowed
in
times
of
famine.
The
last
ten
years
where
the
enemy
had
laid
siege
to
your
borders
I am
even
now
despoiling
and
dismantling
says
the
Lord.
I am
even
now
turning
your
sorrow
into
joy
and
giving
you
beauty
for
your
ashes.
You
will
be
called, �The
light
of
the
world
a
City
upon
a
hill
that
cannot
be
hidden.� �
Mathew
5:14
I
will
once
again
draw
the
harvest
from
many
nations
and
you
will
be
an
epicenter
to
the
utter-most
parts
of
the
earth.
From
you
will
come
epic
breakthroughs
in
medicine
and
science
and
My
anointing
will
renew
your
minds.
I
will
spring
up
from
the
University
campuses
and
My
glory
will
be
clearly
distinguished
as I
open
the
prison
doors
of
intellectualism
and
agnosticism.
A
Saul
of
Tarsus
moment
will
occur
with
brilliant
breakthrough
as
some
of
your
greatest
minds
are
saved.
A
CITY
OF REVOLUTION AND
REVIVAL
Revolution
and
revival
are
in
your
very
DNA
and
I
will
even
now
cause
the
dry
bones
of
your
destiny
to
come
alive.
The
barren
fields
of
the
past
50
years
will
now
be
eclipsed
by a
Jubilee.
Even
this
year
2013,
I am
unfurling
My
treatise
for
you;
my
covenant
and
the
very
things
that
I
declared
to
you
over
150
years
ago
will
shortly
come
to
pass.
I
will
rebuild
the
old
waste
places
and
those
indigenous
to
your
land
will
be
lifted
up �
it
is a
Joseph
moment
and
My
people
will
undoubtedly
be
delivered!
It�s
the
hour
of
the
uncomely
parts.
I
will
repair
the
breach
and
where
there
has
been
a
�issue
of
blood�
and
past
sins
that
have
hobbled
you;
I
will
cause
them
to
be
healed
and
reconciliation
will
take
precedence.
For
I
have
given
you
Milwaukee
a
ministry
of
reconciliation
and
you
will
have
the
heathen
as
your
inheritance
and
the
uttermost
parts
of
the
earth
will
surely
be
your
possession.
�
2nd
Corinthian
5:18,
Psalm
2:8
FAVOR
AND FRUITFULNESS WILL
OVERTAKE
YOU
I am
even
now
causing
a
series
of
events
to
frame
these
moments
of
fruitfulness
and
favor
and
many
from
afar
will
see
it
and
be
glad.
There
will �signs
in
the
heavens
above
and
earth
beneath�.
It
will
be
apparent
to
many
that
the
Hand
of
God
is
upon
the
city
of
Milwaukee
and
beyond.
For
even
now
I am
burning
around
your
borders
with
My
fire
and
the
cities
and
towns
that
orbit
you
will
surely
ignite
for
the
fire
has
already
been
kindled.
�
Acts
2:19
From
as
far
away
as
Chicago
and
Green
Bay
the
fire
will
be
seen
and
felt
as
the
fault
of
line
of
revival
begins
to
shake.
It
will
be
an
awakening,
a
shaking,
which
will
set
the
Great
Lakes
cities
apart
as a
spiritual
high
ground
� a
Shiloh.
The
Tabernacle
of
David
will
be
assembled
in
Milwaukee
and
the
nations
will
flow
into
it.
The
nations
will
flow
into
it.
MILWAUKEE
A
CAPITOL
CITY
OF
REVIVAL
AND
HARVEST
Like
a
Shiloh,
you
will
be a
city
of
gathering
once
again,
even
as
you
forefathers
described
you
�A
gathering
place
by
the
water��
You
will
be
like
a
tree
planted
by
the
river
that
will
bear
its
fruit
in
season.
For
a
season
of
revival
and
harvest
has
surely
come.
You
will
give
the
nations
Living
Water
and
a
well
of
healing
will
be
opened
that
will
never
be
quelled
or
stifled
again.
You
will
be a
Jacob�s
well
and
many
wayward,
prodigal,
poor
and
lost
will
find
it.
I
will
hasten
these
things
to
come
to
pass
says
the
Lord.
Pentecost
is
upon
you
as
this
harvest
comes
to
fruition.
Your
future
will
be
framed
by
a seed-time and
harvest
that
will
surely
be
unprecedented.
Doors
that
have
remained
stubbornly
closed
to
you
will
suddenly
open
as I
give
you
utterance
to
the
world
and
like
a
�Philip�
you
will
evangelize
and
reach
the
nations.
�
Psalm
1:3,
Acts
8:30
A
RUTH
AND
BOAZ
MOMENT
FOR
THE
THRESHING
FLOOR
IS
READY
As
Ruth
was
given
back
her
inheritance
so
shall
I
give
you
back
yours
Milwaukee.
Your
youth
shall
rejoice
in
this
season
as
they
reach
toward
the
high
calling
in
Christ.
I
have
prepared
the
threshing
floor
and
even
now
the
winnowing
fan
is
in
My
hand
and
I
will
surely
separate
the
wheat
from
the
chaff.
I
will
dig
up
the
fallow
ground.
I
will
cause
many
to
return
to
their
first
love
and
to
do
the
first
works
and
many
will
be
saved.
A
windfall
of
salvation
shall
flood
your
streets
and
the
most
notorious
and
riotous
will
be
born-again.
Gated
communities
and
notorious
neighborhoods
will
be
arrested
by
My
grace
and
I
will
surely
set
their
captives
free.
I am
even
now
leaving
the
99
for
the
1.
From
the
East
to
the
West,
from
the
South
to
the
North
My
name
will
be
shouted
from
the
housetops
as I
remove
the
spiritual
ceiling
from
you.
This
is
your
Kairos
moment
Milwaukee
a
day
of
visitation.

THE
CITIES
OF
THE
NORTH:
CLEVELAND,
CHICAGO,
DETROIT,
INDIANAPOLIS
by
Chad
Taylor
(This
word
was
originally
released
on
Nov.
5,
2010
during
the
Revivalists
Come
Forth
Conference
in
Mentor,
Ohio
outside
of
Cleveland,
it
was
recorded
live
and
written
here
as
it
was
spoken.
Chad
is
ministering
in
Cleveland,
OH
again
this
weekend
see
below
for
more
info.)
I
believe
the
cities
of
the
northern
hemisphere
are
suffering
much
because
they
said
�I
will�
and
did
not.
I
believe
there
was
a
time�and
I'm
speaking
this
by
prophecy�I
believe
there
was
a
time
in
the
forties
and
fifties
that
revival
came
and
introduced
itself.
Revival
comes
to
introduce
itself,
see?
It
might
have
a
name
like
Maria
Woodworth-Etter.
Revival
comes
and
says,
�hi.�
�Will
you
follow?�
And
I
believe
that
this
hemisphere,
this
region,
said
�I
will,�
and
never
did.
I
believe
that
God
came
about
fifty,
sixty
years
ago.
And
He
said, �Here,
I
want
to
make
you
something,
man.
I
want
to
make
you.
I
want
to
give
you
revival.
I
want
to
give
you
the
nations.
I
want
to
make
you
a
church
and
a
legacy
and
a
posterity
that
will
live
forever.�
Somewhere
between
point
A
and
point
B we
missed
something.
Something
defaulted
back
to
Egypt.
And
this
area
has
been
going
in
circles, 'round
and
'round
the
same
mountain.
Well,
I
hear
the
voice
of
the
Lord
saying
tonight, "One
more
time.
One
more
time.
I'm
going
to
meet
you
there.
I'm
going
to
meet
you
there
and
lead
you
out.
I'm
going
to
meet
you
there,
right
there
where
you
have
been
before.
One
more
time.
Cleveland,
one
more
time.
Detroit,
Chicago,
Indianapolis,
one
more
time.
�I
will
not�
is
about
to
become
�I
do.�
THE
ELEVENTH
HOUR
CHURCH
I
hear
the
Lord
saying,
these
cities,
this
northern
hemisphere, is
the
eleventh-hour
church.
(Matt.
20:6).
That's
who
they
are.
Other
cities
have
been
working
all
day.
But
God
says,
now
watch.
I'm
going
to
hire
you
now.
And
I'm
going
to
pay
you
the
same
wage
as
those
that
have
been
listening
and
doing
for
years
and
decades. In
other
words,
the
fifty
years
you've
lost,
you'll
regain.
God's
about
to
redeem
the
time.
All
the
absence
of
charity.
All
of
the
absence
of
God's
welfare,
all
of
the
absence
of
those
that
should
have
been
going,
but
didn't�God's
going
to
redeem
in
days
and
weeks
and
months�even
a
year�God
will
bring
it
all
full
circle.
And
the
reproach,
the
reproach
of
Pittsburgh,
the
reproach
of
the
steel
belt,
the
reproach
of
these
regions
is
going
to
come
off
of
you.
It's
going
to
roll
right
off
of
you.
And
the
manna
is
going
to
cease.
See,
that's
what
we
have
to�really,
that's
going
to
be
the
most
difficult
thing
that
we
have
been
eating.
And
it's
been
from
God.
Don't
you
know
about
this
hidden
manna?
That
was
just
your
survival
pack.
Manna
is
just
to
get
you
through,
dude.
Manna
is
just
your
survival
pack.
But
I
want
you
to
cross
over
and
receive
the
promises
that
he
gave
this
city
fifty
years
ago.
50
YEAR
CYCLE
IS
COMING
TO
AN
END
I
see
something
happened
downtown.
Some
research�something
happened
in
the
fifties�downtown
in
Cleveland.
Revival
came
to
this
city.
Someone,
someone
in a
tent
came.
Someone
preached
the
Word.
Someone
brought
the
Word
of
the
Lord
to
this
city,
and
it
was
received,
but
it
was
like
Ezekiel.
It
says
in
Ezekiel
that
they
come
to
you
to
hear
the
Word
like
someone
who
speaks
flatteringly
and
plays
good
at
an
instrument.
They
come
to
hear
you,
but
then
not
do
it.
And
later
when
it
comes
to
pass,
they
say,
surely
a
prophet
is
amongst
you.
That's
what
happened.
They
came
and
they
heard.
They
were
flattered.
They
patted
him
on
the
back
and
said, �Come
on
back.
Thank
you.� They
never
heard
the
Word.
They
never
heeded
the
Word
of
the
Lord.
(Ezekiel
33:30-33)
God
says, now
fifty
years
has
come
to
an
end.
What
was
meant
for
them
is
meant
for
now.
The
disobedience
and
unbelief
come
falling
down.
There's
a
dynamic
in
what's
happened.
We
haven't
figured
it
out.
There
was
a
dynamic
in
the
people�a
dynamic
is a
two-edged
sword.
A
DOUBLE
PORTION
FOR
ALL
YOU
HAVE
LOST
God's
going
to
revive
this
city. Ohio
city,
God's
going
to
revive
you
again.
(Ohio
City
was
the
original
name
of
Cleveland
in
its
origins).
Things
that
were
meant
for
you
fifty,
sixty
years
ago�forty
years.
And
the
corruption,
the
slight-of-hand,
things
that
were
done
in
secret
by
people
that
were
called
righteous
that
were
voted
in
to
leadership,
voted
in
to
place,
they
were
in
corruption,
and
they
forfeited,
and
they�a
few�gave
up
the
liberty
of
many.
A
few
gave
up
the
liberty
for
many.
And
a
decline
came,
a
mark
against
the
city.
A
mark�it
was
in
newspapers.
I
can
see
old
newspapers
where
headline
news
talked
of
the
corruption,
talked
of
the
revealing
of
corruption
and
a
mayor,
a
mayor,
a
mayor
and
some
city
council
lost
their
seats
to
corruption.
That
mark's
been
against
this
city
hurt
forty-five,
fifty
years.
My
Lord.
Now
the
Lords
says, I'm
going
to
reinstate
those
seats
in
righteousness.
Where
the
devil
has
forbidden
God
to
move
by
these
legalities,
I'm
saying,
God's
going
to
restore.
I
hear
the
Lord
saying,
look
at
the
end
of
Job.
Look
at
the
end
of
Job.
His
end
was
double
what
he
lost. And
I
hear
the
Lord
saying
there's
going
to
be a
double
portion
for
the
loss,
for
the
forfeiture,
the
things
that
were
taken
from
you. A
few
took
the
legacy
and
the
inheritance
from
many.
And
now
God
is
going
to
reinstate,
reinstate,
reinstate,
reinstate,
reinstate,
reinstate,
reinstate,
reinstate
Cleveland.
Cleveland...
Cleveland...
It's
a
city
in
mourning.
A
city
in
mourning.
It's
been
crying
over
one
man,
but
God
says,
in
place
of
that
one
man,
I'm
going
to
give
you
a
real
King.
In
place
of
that
king,
I
want
to
give
you
a
real
King.
And
that
vacancy,
that
vacuum,
that
one
man
left,
one
man
will
fill.
My
God.
It's
not
Lebron
James.
It's
King
Jesus.
It's
Jesus!
GOD'S
CHAMPIONS
AND
HIS
HARVEST
I
heard
a
word
of
knowledge
for
this
city�a
word
of
wisdom.
One
king's
left.
Well,
another
king's
a-comin'
now. He's
the
King
of
Kings
and
Lord
of
Lords. And
His
face
you'll
see
on
the
billboards.
His
fame
will
be
spread
abroad.
His
name
will
be
lifted
up.
And
that
vacancy
will
be
filled.
See,
there
was
no
room
at
the
inn,
Melinda
(Pastor
Melinda
Bauman).
There's
room
at
the
inn
now.
There's
room
in
this
city
for
Jesus
now.
And
God
says,
watch,
I'll
smile
down
upon
your
people.
Even
those
at
the
sporting
arenas,
I'll
smile
down
upon
them. I'll
make
champions
out
of
them�God's
champions.
God's
Davids.
I
see
legislation
for
schools.
Something's
going
to
change�something
very
subtle
the
enemy
has
passed.
Something
very
subtle
the
enemy
has
brought
in
to
existence,
under
wraps.
It's
been
unseen.
The
enemy
has
sowed
a
seed.
It's
like
the
tares
in
the
nighttime.
You
wake
up,
and
there
something
was
sown.
The
Lord
says,
it's
time
to
take
up
some
tares.
That's
what
the
Bible
says.
It
says,
the
tares
are
taken
up
first,
the
Bible
says.
You
better
reread
that
whole
scripture.
The
Bible
says
that
they
both
grow
together
until
the
harvest.
Well,
guess
what,
folks?
It's
the
harvest.
So
tares
are
being
brought
up
now.
Laws
that
have
been
made.
Things
that
have
been
forfeited.
All
the
tares
are
being
brought
up
now.
Tares
all
over
this
country
are
being
torn
up.
The
harvest
is
come�a
dispensation,
a
harvest.
Harvest,
man.
Harvest,
the
fullness.
THE
TARES
AND
THE
WHEAT
That's
what's
Pentecost
was.
Harvest�Pentecost
was
the
fullness
of
the
barley
harvest.
Hallelujah.
And
in
the
fullness
of
harvest,
man,
the
tares
start.
Listen
to
me.
That
false
tares
is a
Greek
word
called,
"darnell".
If
you
read
the
Amplified
Bible,
they
don't
even
use
tares;
it
says,
darnell.
It's
a
false
wheat.
You
cannot
distinguish
the
two
until
they
come
to
fruition
into
maturation
in
the
harvest
time.
You
know
how
you
can
tell
the
two
from
wheat?
The
true
wheats
for
harvest
are
bent
down
low.
The
darnell,
or
the
fake
wheat,
stands
straight
up.
Right
now,
there's
a
bending.
Right
now,
there's
a
bending.
God's
bending
many
of
you
low
right
now,
and
you
think
it's
a
burden
or
something
bad.
No.
Bend,
baby,
bend,
so
the
harvest
can
come.
Tares
are
being
taken
up
now.
What
comes
almost
simultaneously
to
them?
Harvest.
Harvest
like
you've
never
seen,
man.
You've
never
seen.
Eye
has
not
seen,
nor
ear
has
not
heard,
or
entered
into
the
heart
of
man.
That's
why
I'm
leaving
my
doctrine
behind,
because
my
eyes
never
saw
it;
my
ears
never
heard
it;
my
heart
has
never
conceived
it�what
God
has
in
store
for
us
that
love
him.
And
this
present
suffering
is
not
worthy
to
be
compared
with
the
glory
that
shall
be
revealed.
Suffering
is
just
the
bringing
down
of
the
old,
so
you
can
cut
those
tares
out.
So,
Father,
we
thank
you
right
now
for
the
word
for
this
city.
The
word
for
this
city�fifty
years
of
ruin.
Fifty
years
of
barrenness.
Fifty
years,
Father,
of
forgetfulness.
Fifty
years
of
disobedience�being
washed
away
in a
day.
My
God!
I
don't
know
if
it's
today,
but
it's
washed
away
in a
day.
One
day.
Where
these
tares
that
were
sown
in
the
academic
world�look
up.
Look
up.
Look
up.
I'm
telling
you,
this
economic
crunch
in
America
is
just
to
get
us
lower.
That's
all
it
is.
He's
just
bending
us
down
just
a
little
bit
lower.
Come
on.
And
He'll
take
up
those
tares.
And
then
all
of a
sudden,
He'll
raise
you
up.
Rise
and
shine
for
the
glory
of
your
light
has
come.
When
darkness
covers
the
earth
and
covers
the
people,
the
Lord
shall
arise
upon
thee,
and
his
glory
shall
be
seen
upon
thee,
and
the
Kings
and
Gentiles
will
come
to
the
brightness
of
its
rising.
So,
Father,
raise
up
this
city.
Lift
up
the
hands
that
hang
down.
Strengthen
the
feeble
knees
that
that
which
is
lame
is
not
turned
away,
but
rather,
it's
healed.
Heal
it,
Lord.

O
ISRAEL,
O
YISRAEL
YOUR
DELIVERER
IS
COMING
November
22nd,
2012
O
Israel,
O
Yisrael,
I
will
soon
bring
your
secret
salvation
into
a
public
forum;
your
faith
in
Me I
will
suddenly
spring
into
an
arena
of
My
making;
even
a
public
place
and
many
will
see
it
and
be
glad.
For
I
have
spoken
to
you
like
Nicodemus
at
night
(John
3),
and
in
the
secret
places
multitudes
have
been
saved
-
now
the
time
has
come
for
their
revealing.
I am
bringing
your
salvation
into
a
public
forum
and
millions
will
behold
it.
Now is the time, I will remove the basket of pretense and circumstance and a Great Awakening shall begin. O Yisrael, you have wrestled with Me but now it will be clearly seen that I am for you and not against you. For many will watch and say, "Who can deliver them? Look, for all have forsaken them!" When it appears like imminent defeat you will prevail, O Yisrael, you will prevail.
"And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel, for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed." Genesis 32:28
But I say to you O Israel, in the darkest moment My light will arise and shine and a deliverance shall come from a land that you did not ask of; a land that you did not seek, nor ever imagined would stand by your side. From the desert deliverance is coming and from the Lands of the North a ally will rise. Have not I promised you I will never forsake you, I will never leave you?
"Who is this coming from Edom, from Bozrah, with his garments stained crimson? Who is this, robed in splendor, striding forward in the greatness of his strength? "It is I, speaking in righteousness, mighty to save." Isaiah 63:1
For two allies will falter and fail you; one shall be a Judas, buy I will raise up a Jonathan in a House of Saul and his arrows will fly straight. I will not allow you to be misled nor will I allow your light to be extinguished. But many will say, even those that once inscribed your name in their hearts, "Can anyone save Her? Can anyone deliver her now?"
But I will call you like a called Lazarus (John 11), and the stone of circumstances will suddenly be rolled away. For I will stir a vanguard of renowned leaders to rally around you. From even the most unexpected places and genres shall they come. I will raise up a former President to stand in the gap, a Prince and even a Queen. I will raise them and they will stand in the gap. I will make an enemy your friend.
"Of David. A psalm. The LORD says to my Lord: "Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet." Psalm 110:1
From Rome shall blessing arise and be sent. From the place where Your faith once shined so bright many will now say, "Look! They are a friend of Israel again!" Indeed they will be, even to bloodshed they will stand with Israel.
I will give you a song of victory again O Yisrael, you will sing the song of David again, "O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, You have covered my head in the day of battle." Psalm 140:7. Psalm 140 is a clarion call for you in this very hour; a song in the night for you O Israel, hear it and be glad. Hear it and be glad!
"I shall lift my eyes to the hills; from where will come my helper?" Psalm 121:1
"Rescue me, O LORD, from evil men; Preserve me from violent men who devise evil things in their hearts; They continually stir up wars. They sharpen their tongues as a serpent; Poison of a viper is under their lips. Selah. Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; Preserve me from violent men." Psalm 40: 1-4

THE EAST COAST: THE WOMB OF REVIVAL IS
BEING REOPENED AGAIN AS GOD�S APOSTOLIC
RESURGENCE MAKES LANDFALL
by Chad Taylor on Saturday, August 27, 2011
at 3:14pm
U.S. Geological Survey said the last 5.8
magnitude earthquake hit Giles County, Va.,
in 1897. Let�s look back for a moment. The
East Coast and New England is America�s
�womb of revival� without the significant
historic revivals that rocked New England,
New York, Savannah, GA and onward we would
not have become the spiritual nation we are
today. The Fulton Street prayer meeting in
New York City is an astounding example: In
September of 1857 Jeremiah Lanpheir began a
weekly prayer meeting.
It was reported that, �By March
newspapers carried front page reports of
over 6,000 attending daily prayer meetings
in New York, 6,000 attending them in
Pittsburgh, and daily prayer meetings were
being held in Washington at five different
times to accommodate the crowds. Other
cities followed and the fire of prayer
resulting in historic revival continued.
�Soon a common midday sign on businesses
read, 'Will reopen at the close of the
prayer meeting.'
By May, 50,000 of New York's 800,000
people were new converts. A newspaper
reported that New England was profoundly
changed by the revival and in several towns
no unconverted adults could be found!�
Revival swept the nation and the world from
the Eastern seaboard of the Americas that
defined the church age we are presently
living in. However it was not long until
these very churches and places sunk into the
drudgery of religion and tradition and these
mighty moves of God were seemingly
forgotten.
I HEARD THE LORD SAY TODAY, �THE COALS OF
REVIVAL ARE BEING BLOWN ON AND THE WELLS OF
REFORMATION RE-DUG!�
I heard the Lord say today, �The cold
coals of revival that have lied dormant on
the East Coast and New England are being
blown on; the dry wells of reformation and
awakening filled with rocks of tradition and
rank religion are being shaken and opened.
Watch and see!�
I also heard the Lord clearly say that
the WINESKIN is being broken not only in the
Church of the East Coast and inland but our
governing forces as well. These clear and
present signs now crashing down upon the
shores of American�s Atlantic coast are a
sign of an �old wineskin� breaking and the
well�s of previous revivals framed by
massive prayer gatherings being re-dug and
re-established right before our eyes.
I HEARD THE LORD SAY, �TODAY MARKS AN
APOSTOLIC RESURGENCE AND A APOSTOLIC MOVE OF
MY SPIRIT� AUGUST 27 ACTS 27.
As I meditated on this statement above
the Lord brought me back to the time Apostle
Paul faced a storm of hurricane proportions
as they were in the ship transporting Paul
to Rome. What is very interesting as well is
this account is found in ACTS CHAPTER TWENTY
SEVEN. Today is AUGUST TWENTY SEVEN as we
watch Hurricane Irene make landfall and
breaking news. The Lord began to reveal to
me that at this very moment the beginning of
an Apostolic resurgence and a Apostolic move
of His Spirit to steer the church back to
the shores of revival was occurring.
Paul was going to Rome to be God�s
witness not only to the common people but
the KING. This current move of God unfolding
before our eyes on Aug. 27th is also a
signpost of God�s intentions and plans to be
heard again in the highest places of
Government in America.
In the story of Paul in Acts 27 they make
it through the storms with their lives
however the ship was lost. I heard the Lord
say that the �structure� and many things we
have �held on to� are being swept aside in
the coming days making way for the new and
that His will in the earth can be
accomplished. On this TWENTY SEVENTH DAY
ACTS TWENTY SEVEN IS BEING ESTABLISHED SAYS
THE LORD. YOU ARE CROSSING OVER!
"Before very long, a wind of hurricane
force, called the �northeaster,� swept down
from the island. The ship was caught by the
storm and could not head into the wind; so
we gave way to it and were driven along..."
- Acts 27
PORTS OF REVIVAL AND REFORMATION: GOD'S
GROUND ZERO
The coastal cities of the East Coast are
ports of revival and reformation. From
Savannah, GA where the Wesley�s landed and
the Moravians to New England rife with
revival history where Whitefield, Brainerd,
Finney and even the likes of D.L. Moody
preached historic revival meetings. These
port cities became missionary hubs as
revival spread to Ireland, Scotland, England
and Wales. They are being primed once again
to be �PORTS OF REVIVAL AND REFORMATION�.
But as any revival the old and the
decayed; the stubborn moral and spiritual
roadblocks need to be removed. Alas, the
historic ensigns we are seeing the last few
days in a �100 year earthquake� and the
hurricane bearing down on the East Coast
even now. These coastal cities are marked by
God for revival and the �writing is on the
wall� so to speak, as God sets a series of
events in motion that will cast the
spiritual mountains of resistance to His
revival into the sea.
I HEARD GOD SHOUT, �GRACE, GRACE TO THE
MOUNTAIN!�
Who are you, O great mountain? Before
Zerubbabel you shall become a plain. And he
shall bring forward the top stone amid
shouts of �Grace, grace to it!� - Zechariah
4:7
The strategy of God for prayer in these
current crisis�s is GRACE. Grace will cause
the imminent appearance of disaster to be
transformed into a unstoppable momentum
toward His ultimate will of revival and
salvation for all. The Eastern Cities such
as New York, Norfolk, Virginia, Washington
D.C., Boston, MA and many others will be
marked for revival and the coming tide of
transformation.
As indicated in the scripture in
Zechariah above God is revealing the
foundations, the �top stones�, �cap stones�
or �cornerstones� of this nation. These
outward signs of earthquakes and hurricanes
are only a signpost of what is happening
much deeper in the Spirit and our response
is clear, �GRACE, GRACE TO IT!�
IRENE IS A SIGNPOST OF GOD�S PEACE AS HE
REESTABLISHES HIS WILL: A PLACE OF CROSSING
OVER, GETTING US TO THE OTHER SIDE
Irene in the Greek means peace. I saw a
vision today of Jesus on the storm as the
boat where the disciples were was buffeted
by the gale winds of the storm. This
scenario was a PLACE OF CROSSING OVER,
GETTING TO THE OTHER SIDE. These unfolding
events on the Eastern seaboard of America is
the same, a place of crossing over to the
other side. Across the chasms of economic
woe, moral collapse, great canyons of
spiritual divides, a gulf fixed between
fathers and their children young and old.
�Immediately Jesus made the disciples get
into the boat and go on ahead of him to the
other side, while he dismissed the crowd.
After he had dismissed them, he went up on a
mountainside by himself to pray. Later that
night, he was there alone, and the boat was
already a considerable distance from land,
buffeted by the waves because the wind was
against it. Shortly before dawn Jesus went
out to them, walking on the lake. When the
disciples saw him walking on the lake, they
were terrified. �It�s a ghost,� they said,
and cried out in fear. But Jesus immediately
said to them: �Take courage! It is I. Don�t
be afraid.� - Matt. 14:22-26
IRENE: A MILE MARKER OF GOD�S GRACE AND
MERCY TO THIS NATION
This is not the first time that �Irene�
has hit the East Coast of this nation... I
believe over the decades and in this century
the Lord has continually been calling the
East Coast back to its origins: it�s history
of revival and reformational prayer and to
become port cities of revival again. If you
were to look closely at the years �Irene�
crashed on the shores of this country I
believe you can follow the tell-tale signs
of God�s hand upon this country steering her
back to His will. These were �wake-up calls�
as God sounded His alarm from Heaven:
Tropical Storm Irene (1959), caused minor
damage to the Florida Panhandle
Hurricane Irene (1971), struck Nicaragua
as a Category 1 hurricane, then tracked
to the Eastern Pacific Ocean and became
Eastern Pacific's hurricane Olivia
Hurricane Irene (1981), Category 3
hurricane; moved across the Atlantic both
ways, eventually hitting France as an extra
tropical storm
Hurricane Irene (1999), Category 2
hurricane; passed over Cuba and struck
Florida, causing $800 million (1999 USD) in
damage
Hurricane Irene (2005), Category 2
hurricane; did not affect land
And now currently Hurricane Irene (2011),
currently active; threatening the US East
Coast as a possible major Category 3
hurricane. It is expected to hit the
Northeast as a Category 1 hurricane.
A RUSHING MIGHTY WIND AND A EARTHQUAKE OF
REVIVAL: ANOTHER PENTECOST IS COMING
Jonathan Edwards, the preacher and
scholar who later became the President of
Princeton University, was a dynamic leader
in a revival in the 1700's which we call
today, �The Great Awakening�. New believers
reached upwards to 50,000 out of a total of
250,000 colonists. God was everywhere�
Edwards later published the journal of
David Brainerd, a missionary to the North
American Indians from 1743-1747. Brainerd
tells of revival breaking out among Indians
in October 1745 �when the power of God
seemed to come like a rushing mighty wind��
The Native American�s become powerful
preachers in this reformation such as
Sampson Occom from the Mohegan tribe that
inspired Eleazar Wheelock to start the
revered Dartmouth College in New Hampshire
to originally be a training center to raise
up Native American missionaries.
In Acts Chapter 2 revival was framed by
�A RUSHING MIGHTY WIND�. As Hurricane Irene
makes landfall with winds upwards to 120mph
in some places it is a natural sign of
spiritual breakthroughs to come. God is
going to send His �rushing mighty wind� to
His church again and the outcome will be
inevitable: A unprecedented missionary
thrust and revival in the market place.
Pentecost was not only the day the Baptism
of the Spirit came, it was also the peak of
harvest time in Israel. We are on the cusp
of the greatest harvest in this nation�s
history. All of her former revival�s will
pale in comparison to what is on the
horizon�
"On the day of Pentecost all the
believers were meeting together in one
place. Suddenly, there was a sound from
heaven like the roaring of a mighty
windstorm, and it filled the house where
they were sitting..." - Acts 2: 1-2
A REVIVAL OF PRAYER AND A REVIVAL OF
SALVATION
With such a rich revival history that
catapulted this nation into her harvest and
future - God�s love and commitment to us
will not be thwarted by years of history and
moral decline. These historic signs of a
earthquake and now a hurricane are only
physical indications of what is happening in
the spiritual landscape. Two times in the
early church�s conception was there an
earthquake. Once while they were in a PRAYER
MEETING crying out to God for revival, and
again, in the prison when God SET THE
CAPTIVES FREE from their captivity and every
prison door was open. Rest assured God
intends to do both again through these clear
and present signposts on the East Coast: A
REVIVAL OF PRAYER AND A REVIVAL OF
SALVATION.
"After this prayer, the meeting place
shook, and they were all filled with the
Holy Spirit. Then they preached the word of
God with boldness." Acts 4:31
"About midnight Paul and Silas were
praying and singing hymns to God, and the
other prisoners were listening to them.
Suddenly there was such a violent earthquake
that the foundations of the prison were
shaken. At once all the prison doors flew
open, and everybody�s chains came loose."
Acts 16:25-26

MASSACHUSETTS: GOD'S "CAUSEWAY" IN A
STATE OF CROSSING OVER - NEW ENGLAND YOUR
DAY OF VISITATION IS FAST APPROACHING
For "I will do wonders amongst you" says
the Lord. For the time has come that my
presence will pass through as the Ark did
in Joshua's day. As they did then, it is
critical that you do so now: "GO AFTER IT!"
(Josh. 3:3). The time to move forward has
arrived and the urgency to cross over is
upon you says the Lord. Move! For I will
give you hinds-feet and you will overcome
the obstacles and road-blocks that has
hitherto hindered you causing you to dwell
in the wilderness. I will fill your sails
with new life and inspiration and the flag
of leadership and breakthrough shall no
longer be half-mast; it will rise again for
the world to see and follow. Once again you
shall be known as "revolutionary",
"trailblazer", "revivalist."
The galloping hoof beats of visitation is
fast approaching says the Lord. The sound of
thunder will surely follow this day of
illumination. The dark skies of confusion
will give way to revelation as the "eyes of
their understanding are enlightened." I
will make you Massachusetts a "CAUSEWAY", a
bridge that will carry millions over the
mire of history and darkness into the light
of a New Day. "See, the former things have
taken place, and new things I declare;
before they spring into being I announce
them to you." Hear the word of the Lord
Massachusetts, You are my Causeway and you
are in a state of crossing over and your Day
of Visitation is fast approaching! (Eph.
1:18 Is. 42:9.).
SALEM IS A SAMARIA AND THE TIME OF ACTS
CHAPTER 8 IS NOW UPON YOU
In a city steeped in historic notoriety,
that bears the marks still to this day, I
say in these places where once the flames of
ignorance and fear burned I will now burn in
the hearts of these - their descendants. In
the very places marred by crime and
injustice I will raise a standard that will
burn much more brighter than histories
defaming ensigns. It will mark a cross-over,
a historic junction like Joshua at the river
Jordan at the times of harvest and you will
cross over. For I have heard the cry of
history in your midst, the cry of justice,
the cry of mercy! I have heard the "blood of
your brother crying from the ground" and I
will hasten this day of discovery and
transformation.
I will hasten the day of my visitation.
Many will be seen and heard in the streets
mourning. Mourning for their sins and past
transgressions. As they did in the days of
John the Baptist, so they will do in your
streets O Salem Massachusetts. So shall they
do in your day. A river of tears shall flood
the streets as men and women turn to Jesus.
They will be like the woman who washed My
feet with her tears and my response shall be
the same, "FORGIVEN". You will sow in tears
and reap in joy. (Ps. 126:5)
For the outpouring of ACTS CHAPTER 8 AND
THE HEART OF PHILIP THE EVANGELIST IS NOW
UPON YOU. For I will call you a Samaria
says the Lord and that which I did then I
will do now in your streets, parks, fields
and campuses. I will stir the waters and
come down. The angles of My presence shall
surely arrest the hearts of many and the
streets will resound with salvation, the
sound of repentance and rejoicing.
"Philip went to the city of Samaria
(Salem) and told the people about
Christ. They crowded around Philip because
they were eager to hear what he was saying
and to see him work miracles. Many people
with evil spirits were healed, and the
spirits went out of them with a shout. A lot
of crippled and lame people were also
healed. Everyone in that city was very glad
because of what was happening.
For some time a man named Simon had lived
in the city of Samaria and had amazed the
people. He practiced witchcraft and claimed
to be somebody great. Everyone, rich and
poor, crowded around him. They said, "This
man is the power of God called `The Great
Power.' "
For a long time, Simon had used
witchcraft to amaze the people, and they
kept crowding around him. But when they
believed what Philip was saying about God's
kingdom and about the name of Jesus
Christ, they were all baptized. Even Simon
believed and was baptized. He stayed close
to Philip, because he marveled at all the
miracles and wonders. (Acts 8:5-13).
YOUR POSTERITY WILL NO LONGER BE
"HISTORY" I WILL SET ENGLAND ABLAZE AGAIN!
Your historic premise is not forgotten.
For in England I will burn with a new fire
of reformation. For I say to you I will do
in the courts of Elizabeth who once was your
Queen a miracle. Elizabeth means, "God�s
promise" and My promise to you and your
forefathers has not failed nor faltered. As
Elizabeth in biblical history you will "give
birth" to a revival of reformation and
revival in the earth. A day of John the
Baptist is upon you as you prepare the way
of Lord. For the song of a Father is over
you O England, New England and
Massachusetts, a song of the Father's heart
and revival. I will sing it over you as I
did in the day of John the Baptist, I will
sing it in the courts of your Kings
and Queens says the Lord.
THE SONG OF A FATHER: THE SONG OF
ZACHARIAS
"And his father Zacharias was filled with
the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying,
Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel; For
he hath visited and wrought redemption for
his people, And hath raised up a horn of
salvation for us In the house of his servant
David (As he spoke by the mouth of his holy
prophets which have been since the world
began), Salvation from our enemies, and from
the hand of all that hate us; To show mercy
towards our fathers, And to remember his
holy covenant; The oath which he swore unto
Abraham our father, To grant unto us that we
being delivered out of the hand of our
enemies Should serve him without fear, In
holiness and righteousness before him all
our days.
Yea and thou, child, shall be called the
prophet of the Most High: For thou shall go
before the face of the Lord to make ready
his ways; To give knowledge of salvation
unto his people In the remission of their
sins, Because of the tender mercy of our
God, Whereby the dayspring from on high
shall visit us, To shine upon them that sit
in darkness and the shadow of death; To
guide our feet into the way of peace..."
(Luke 1:67-80 ERV)
THE BOSTON TEA PARTY AND BEYOND:
BOSTON IS A MISSIONARIES PORT TO THE NATIONS
Boston, "Ask of me, and I will make the
nations your inheritance, the ends of the
earth your possession". I will set
your ports ablaze with zeal for the Harvest.
You will be My "Love Ablaze", My "City upon
a hill that cannot be hid". I will send the
Spirit of Intercession upon you and a wave
of prayer will bolster your vision for the
nations. I will give you an "upper-room" and
you will pray as they did in every
generation for revival, "...and grant to
your servants that with all boldness they
may preach your word!" (Acts 4:29).
You will resist the temptation for
conform and your laws and legislation shall
reflect this reformation. The ships of
compromise shall not find rest in your
ports; your hearts and your people will
arise and shine says the Lord. Your children
will reflect a greater glory and hunger to
see history made - not just remembered. They
will set a standard in your streets of
holiness and mercy that will be the
trailblazer of the future.
In the rural church and cities I will
breath the breath of Life and the dry bones
of forgotten fire will burn brightly again.
The forgotten bones of revival will stir and
the words of your forefathers that once
cried for the Heaven's to be opened will
resonate in your streets, your fields, your
homes, your churches. Their prayers will
kindle a new fire and passion in you as you
"press on toward the goal for the prize of
the upward call of God in Christ Jesus."
(Phil. 3:14)
THE FAULT LINE OF REVIVAL AND A CHOSEN
FAST
The FAULT LINE OF REVIVAL that I have
placed in your borders will shake again
causing many to pray and fast. Isaiah 58
will crescendo in your land as you "loose
the chains of injustice and untie the cords
of the yoke to set the oppressed free and
break every yoke... to share your food with
the hungry and to provide the poor wanderer
with shelter - when you see the naked, to
clothe him, and not to turn away from your
own flesh and blood..." (Isa. 58: 6-7).
You will once again be a forerunner of
change and transfiguration in the nation
which will be a guiding light to many. The
Fault Line between Ireland and Scotland,
Wales, Norway and Africa shall burn bright
again as the lighthouses of revival pierce
the murky waters of religion. Prophets shall
be heard in your most prestigious college
campuses as this generation of reformers
arise with a clarion call for revival and
prayer.
From Dartmouth College to New London,
Connecticut, Plymouth, MA. and beyond I will
cause the hearts of many to burn with prayer
and fasting as they seek the face of God.
Many will hear the Word of the Lord and
prophesy and their words will be like fire
says the Lord. As Ezekiel stood on the
precipice of endless possibility in the
valley of dry bones I will cause you to
stand at this same precipice. You will see
with your own eyes the deliverance of your
God as I fight for your future.
The hedges and high places that have
resisted the Grace of God and Love of God
will be pulled down as a "Gideon's moment"
passes by you. I will make your fleece wet
with the confidence to move forward. You
will boldly cross over the historic chasms
that have mocked your progress as Goliath
did David. Now you will shout and cross
over! You will shout and cross over! You
will shout with a voice of Triumph O land of
liberty and salvation!
FIRST NATIONS, FIRST FRUITS AND FINAL
HARVEST: YOUR LAND WILL HEAR THE CRY OF THEM
AGAIN
The bones of those forgotten will now
become a day of remembrance says the Lord.
Those who first greeted you on the shores of
your own reformation and revolution shall
again be your first fruits and final harvest
says the Lord. The kindred spirit and the
hearts that were knit together in love will
never be torn again by envy, strife and
greed. I will tie this three-fold cord once
again and the gates of hell will not prevail
against it. I will string My bow says the
Lord with a quiver full of My Promises as
New England stands at the cross-roads, a
"river-junction" and YOU Massachusetts will
be a CAUSEWAY for the nation to cross over.
As Squanto was to the Pilgrims in
Plymouth, MA. I will lift the voice of your
indigenous from obscurity and as Joseph was
to his people in Egypt so shall they be to
yours. This is your Pentecost New England,
it is your day of First Fruits and harvest.
My threshing floor will be established in
your borders and as Ruth the Moabite found
her way - you shall find yours. I will give
you the fields of harvest harvest I will
most assuredly "Make the nations your
inheritance, the ends of the earth your
possession..."

NORWAY: YOUR STATE OF EMERGENCY WILL
BECOME GOD'S STATE OF REFUGE
by Chad Taylor on Thursday, July 28, 2011
at 11:16a
"Beautiful for situation, the joy of the
whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of
the north, the city of the great King."
(Psalm 48:2)
As I was flying from Atlanta, GA. to
Cleveland, OH. this last weekend July 22nd
the Lord began to speak to me about the
bombing in Oslo, Norway that occurred that
very day and the historic precedence as
well. Also on July 22nd, 1916 in San
Francisco, California a bomb explodes on
Market Street during a parade killing 10 and
injuring 40. On July 22nd, 1946 a
underground organization bombs the King
David Hotel in Jerusalem resulting in 91
deaths. God said to me as I read these
harrowing details, "Break the curse off of
July 22nd, the enemy is trying to derail the
breakthrough intended for these nations and
in the world on this very day now and in
history."
A "DAY OF REMEMBRANCE" HAS BEGUN
For I have heard the cry of your people
for a thousand years and this day has come
before Me as day of remembrance. "...and the
LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of
remembrance was written before Him for them
that feared the LORD, and that thought upon
His name" (Malachi 3:16). Past, present and
future is attesting to this day as I prepare
you for a deluge of My spirit. At first it
will appear like a reed in the wind and a
smoking flax; but as this year comes to a
close the fire of a transformation will burn
brightly. For Justice will prevail and I
will repair your breach says the Lord. You
will find an unlikely ally in this season as
the eyes of the world are upon you. You will
fulfill the prophecy of Isaiah as the
nations come to your borders, "To grant
[consolation and joy] to those who mourn in
Zion--to give them an ornament (a garland or
diadem) of beauty instead of ashes, the oil
of joy instead of mourning, the garment
[expressive] of praise instead of a heavy,
burdened, and failing spirit--that they may
be called oaks of righteousness [lofty,
strong, and magnificent, distinguished for
uprightness, justice, and right standing
with God], the planting of the Lord, that He
may be glorified." (Is. 61:3 amplified)
I have not forgotten the covenant I made
with you forefathers neither have I
forgotten the prophecies that have went
before to your descendants and now I will
hasten the day for their fulfillment. You
are at a spiritual "Gilgal" and the reproach
will now be rolled off of you. I will cause
you to cross over this current tragedy and
give you the land promised to your
forefathers. My words will be your anchor in
this tumult, "Fear not, for you shall not be
ashamed; neither be confounded and
depressed, for you shall not be put to
shame. For you shall forget the shame of
your youth, and you shall not [seriously]
remember the reproach of your widowhood any
more..." (Is. 54:4 Amplified) Look to the
hills from whence comes your help says the
Lord - look to the hills from whence comes
your help!
A CITY ON THE "SIDES OF THE NORTH": A
NATION OF REFUGE AND RESOURCE
As the "distress of nations" escalates
around the world you will be a mountain of
refuge - a city upon a hill that cannot be
hid. As the darkness appears to cover the
earth I will arise and shine upon you. "And
the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and
kings to the brightness of thy rising" (Is.
60:1-3). You will be a spiritual linchpin
that will cause the Nations of Europe and
beyond to return to the Lord. Norway, you
will be a hi-way to Heaven and multitudes
will will be born- again under your shadow.
For in this moment of testing you will
overcome thus raising another standard of
revival in the land. Your leaders will sit
at the table of reformation and revival and
like David they will raise the banner of
worship and praise. Multitudes will gather
in Norway to seek the Lord as the cloud of
His presence settles over them.
As many nations falter and their
resources are at risk you will be a well of
resource and supply. For I have planted in
you a tree of blessing that is even now
bearing fruit in its season. (Ps. 1:3). Your
leaves will not wither and your fruit will
remain. For in the coming days many will
look to you for energy, fuel and natural
resources and like Joseph in biblical days
your silos will be full and the threshing
floor a-plenty. For in this hour your oil
and wine will not run dry. For I have
extended My scepter of favor to you O Norway
as the shifting tides of nations come and
go. "Your people will rebuild the ancient
ruins and will raise up the age-old
foundations; you will be called Repairer of
Broken Walls, Restorer of Streets with
Dwellings." (Is. 58:12). I will turn your
water into wine.
A THREE-FOLD CORD: NORWAY, SWEDEN AND
DENMARK
As I did in Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria
I will cause these triune nations of Norway,
Denmark and Sweden to be a epicenter of
harvest and strategy. The uttermost parts of
the earth will be their objective as My
spirit of Liberty and Freedom reside there.
A apostolic hedge shall be around them
equipping the Church for the ministry. The
ebb and tide of circumstances shall calm and
in the wake of current events a rally cry
for God's heart will be heard above the
calamity. As the dust of tragedy settles,
from it will spring a field of harvest in
full maturation and fruition. The fallow
ground has been broken. "All by itself the
soil produces grain�first the stalk, then
the head, then the full kernel in the head.
As soon as the grain is ripe, he puts the
sickle to it, because the harvest has
come...� (Mark 4:28).
I will cause a cry from the youth in
these three nations that will stir the heart
of the world. A youth movement of
unprecedented impact and longevity will
spring from these Three that will spur the
hearts of youth around the world to Jesus.
They will carry the torch into Africa,
Australia, Israel, New Zealand, America,
Canada and beyond. Everywhere they go it
will be ablaze. Powerful orators and
preachers will now emerge and in the coming
months and years they will raise a very
different standard and measure for those to
follow. You will be a prophetic canvas for
the world to read."Though one may be
overpowered, two can defend themselves. A
cord of three strands is not quickly
broken..." (Eccl. 4:12)
LIKE SUMMER SNOW: GOD'S PROMISES FOR YOU
NOW
As these passing days have left an
indelible mark on your heart so will the
coming blessings eclipse even this that you
are now enduring. Like summer snow I will
bring the blessings of the Lord that will
overtake you. I will avenge you seven-fold
and restore what the locust have devoured.
Even the very places where blood has marked
the soil I will spring up an ensign of my
faithfulness and even your own past mistakes
will be blotted out. They shall be made
white as snow. For I am planting a tree of
righteousness and the nations from it will
be healed. "I will open rivers in desolate
heights, And fountains in the midst of the
valleys; I will make the wilderness a pool
of water, And the dry land springs of
water". (Is. 41:18). I will hasten these
things to come to pass. I will open the
windows of Heaven to pour out My blessings.
I have stirred the waters and My healing
will take precedence now. I will bind up the
broken hearted and give them joy for their
sorrow. I will heal the broken wing and like
an eagle your strength will be restored. I
will roll the reproach away and even your
enemies will become your friends in this
season. I will cause the devourer to be
driven away and your fields restored. As
David and Goliath I have caused the giants
to fall before you and even as I have done
for centuries I will prove my faithfulness
to you again. Your value will quickly go up
even before the un-godly. Many will desire
your stock as the value of your nation
rises. "I will say to the north, Give up;
and to the south, Keep not back: bring my
sons from far, and my daughters from the
ends of the earth..." (Is. 43:6) Norway,
Your state of emergency will now be God's
state of refuge.

MINOT, ND: YOUR JORDAN HAS FLOODED AND
YOUR HARVEST IS READY!
by Chad Taylor on Friday, July 15, 2011
at 12:11p
* I began to write this message out below
as Minot, N.D. was capturing the headlines
around the nation as the flood waters
continued to rise. I have personally
ministered in Minot a number of times and
have walked her streets and seen first hand
the prolific harvest and it's readiness to
hear the Gospel. I pray this word urges
Minot forward and continues to realign her
to the harvest that is ready and white.
There is no other alternative now - harvest!
Chad Taylor
"Now the Jordan is at flood stage all
during harvest..." Joshua 3:15
Even as Joshua and the priests approached
the flooded waters of the Jordan during its
harvest so is Minot, ND. standing at the
threshold of the greatest breakthrough in
its history. Even as the eyes of the world
watched now will they see My glory rise in
the midst of every common man and woman. The
trumpets of victory are about to sound
sending a shock wave of victory into the
most stubborn resistance and finally felling
the walls of division, religion and sin.
Mark it down, your harvest is imminent
and the seeds of revival planted over 100
years ago in your soil are even now breaking
the fallow ground. "Those who plant in tears
will harvest with shouts of joy!" Ps. 126:5
The Ark of My presence is about to pass
through even as it did in Joshua's day and
your orders are the same as it was then,
"And they commanded the people, saying, When
ye see the ark of the covenant of the LORD
your God, and the priests the Levites
bearing it, then ye shall remove from your
place, and go after it..." Go after it says
the Lord! Do not stand on the sidelines any
longer it's time to get into the field! As
Ruth in the Bible your strategy is clear,
"And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Naomi,
Let me now go to the field, and glean ears
of corn after him in whose sight I shall
find grace. And she said unto her, Go, my
daughter. And she went, and came, and
gleaned in the field after the reapers..."
Ruth 2:2-3
Now is the time to move forward, to take
back your hi-ways and bi-ways and every dark
place for the Kingdom of your God. See? I
have anointed your feet during the time of
this flood. It's a historic precipice and
like the priests before - you will stand in
the flood waters and make a way for the
people to walk into the future. You are My
Ruth and I have designated this time as
boutiful harvest for you and I will give you
favor even with your enemies.
"So the people left their camp to cross
the Jordan, and the priests who were
carrying the Ark of the Covenant went ahead
of them.
The debris of past resistance that
clogged and snagged up the river of my
intentions is also being washed away;
certainly what your enemy meant for evil I
have always intended for Good and now it
will work out in your favor says the Lord.
The Lord says, take notice of the babies
born during this crisis they are a sign to
you as well... They are the first fruits of
the harvesters that are coming out of this
season, the youth and those that are
crossing over. Take note of those born
during this time and this flood they are
from the Lord! Your harvest is upon you.
"You have enlarged the nation and
increased their joy; they rejoice before you
as people rejoice at the harvest, as men
rejoice when dividing the plunder..." Is.

�FROM THE FOUR WILL COME THE MORE�: THE
FOUR CORNERS ANOMALY,
ALBUQUERQUE, AND THE ANCIENT OF DAYS
by Chad Taylor on Thursday, May 12, 2011
at 1:59p
"Who is this coming from Edom, from
Bozrah, with his garments stained crimson?
Who is this, robed in splendor, striding
forward in the greatness of his strength?
"It is I, speaking in righteousness, mighty
to save." Is. 63:1
My travels into the �Four Corners� area
or Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Colorado go
back many years. This unprecedented area
where 4 states collide at their Southwestern
and Eastern borders is a historic anomaly.
Congress follows a simple guideline for
defining new territory as the then �new�
United States expanded West which is its
longitude and latitude lines and rivers.
However in this case, it was a line running
due South from the Southwest corner of
Colorado. Even from it�s conception this
region was set aside and unique. In 1999 I
was ministering at Spring Harvest Church in
Colorado Springs Pastored by Dutch Sheets on
Sunday April 18th to a combined youth
service 2 days before the Columbine tragedy.
My scripture reference that morning was out
of Jeremiah 31:15-17,
�Thus saith the LORD; A voice was heard
in Ramah, lamentation, and bitter weeping;
Rahel weeping for her children refused to be
comforted for her children, because they
were not. Thus saith the LORD; Refrain thy
voice from weeping, and thine eyes from
tears: for thy work shall be rewarded, saith
the LORD; and they shall come again from the
land of the enemy. And there is hope in
thine end, saith the LORD, that thy children
shall come again to their own border�� It
was a promise that God would get the glory
even in tragedy and loss.
That same week in 1999 I walked the
streets of Cortez, CO. at the Four Corners
area and I will never forget the feeling of
hopelessness as if all hope was stymied and
dark. At that very moment as I walked her
downtown streets I heard the Lord say to me,
�You see this city? This region? Watch and
see what I will do here�� 12 years later
one weekend ago May 6-9th, 2011 I stood in
Cortez, CO. again and saw people saved,
moved and touched in an outdoor park and
local Foursquare church. �From the Four
will Come the More�� I knew that this was
the beginning of a major shift and move of
God as He had promised in the Four State
region of Arizona, Utah, Colorado and New
Mexico and that would inevitably reach the
world for Jesus.
ANCIENT ONES AND THE ANCIENT OF DAYS
This area also is inhabited by the 2
largest Native American reservations in the
nation - the Navaho and the Tohono O�odham
Nation. The Four Corners has a striking
difference from any other region in the
United States. It holds within it some of
the oldest ruins of ancient civilization in
the North American continent such as the
Anazazi and the Pueblos. These timeless
ruins stand today as they have for thousands
of years as a stark reminder of those that
came before us. Anazazi is a Navajo word for
�Ancient Ones�. In all of this continents
history the Four Corners stands as one if
it�s most ancient gateways and obvious
stages for prayer and intercession. In
Daniel 7:9 Daniel saw the Lord as the
Ancient of Days usurping all other powers
and thrones.
�I beheld till the thrones were cast
down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose
garment was white as snow, and the hair of
his head like the pure wool: his throne was
like the fiery flame, and his wheels as
burning fire��
The Four Corners region is an end-time
beachhead for spiritual warfare and historic
breakthrough for missions and the Kingdom of
God in the earth and is even now rising to
her full stature in the Spirit.
There are 22 or more Native Tribes in
Arizona Alone. It is a cultural and tribal
melding pot that is simmering and about to
tip. It will become a maelstrom of spiritual
breakthrough as a people rise from the ashes
like a Phoenix to take the Gospel of Jesus
Christ to the uttermost parts of the earth.
An ancient precipice that has been set aside
for thousands of years �for such a time as
this�.
THE BURNING MAN WILL NOW BE A BURNING
CHURCH
On the outskirts of the Four Corners
region in Nevada also in the desert stands
one of the nations� most infamous and God
defying rituals called, �The Burning Man�.
A week long pagan ritual celebrating
alleged self-expression and �liberty� that
originated on Baker Beach in San Francisco.
The desert has often been the host for many
strange and bizarre rituals that have went
down in the annals of American lore. However
the Bible records, �See, I am doing a new
thing! Now it springs up; do you not
perceive it? I am making a way in the desert
and streams in the wasteland.� Isaiah 43:19
THE THIRST, HUNGRY AND LOST WILL OPEN UP
THE FLOODGATES
This ancient text found in Isaiah
41:17-20 below is about to become the mantra
of the Southwestern region of the United
States as God uses it as a mighty
springboard of end-time events and world
missions. It will be a linchpin of God�s
victory in the pervading darkness in the
United States and the world. From a area
known for poverty and the plight of the
Native People now paints a vivid backdrop
for deliverance and salvation:
The poor and needy seek water, but there
is none, Their tongues fail for thirst. I,
the LORD, will hear them; I, the God of
Israel, will not forsake them. I will open
rivers in desolate heights, And fountains
in the midst of the valleys; I will make the
wilderness a pool of water, And the dry land
springs of water. I will plant in the
wilderness the cedar and the acacia tree,
The myrtle and the oil tree; I will set in
the desert the cypress tree and the pine and
the box tree together, That they may see and
know, and consider and understand together,
that the hand of the LORD has done this, and
the Holy One of Israel has created it��
ALBUQUERQUE GOD�S EDOM AND CAPITOL CITY
OF TRANSFORMATION
This last weekend mentioned above that I
ministered in the Four Corners I also was
invited quite suddenly on that Friday to
return to one of my most endearing cities in
America - Albuquerque, NM. I have
ministered there twice before over the last
5 years but had no idea what was in store
for us now.
As we entered the city from the northern
route from Cortez, Durango, CO. and
Farmington, NM. We stopped at a local coffee
shop on the outskirts of Albuquerque. As I
stepped from the car immediately a Hopi
Native American elder walked past me. I
yelled a greeting to him and he turned on
his heels and declared, �I love you! I have
missed you it�s been so long since you have
been here!� He rushed up to me and embraced
me with tears. I had never seen this man in
my life�
The next 15 minutes I recognized it was
not just this Hopi Native that was greeting
me, IT WAS THE LAND THAT WAS WELCOMING US!
The land longed to hear the word of the
Lord often more than we do. It yearns as
Paul records in Romans, �For deliverance and
healing.� (Romans 8:19-21). The Hopi man
went on to declare many profound things to
our group of 5 but one statement was
staggering, he said, �Joshua, welcome to
your promise land the gates are open to
you!� We were stunned and knew it was a
backdrop for things to come that Sunday
evening at Glory Bound Church in Albuquerque
and more importantly the regions future.
When I landed at the airport in
Albuquerque 2 days before on Friday May 6th
I heard this scripture over and over in the
spirit,
�Who is this coming from Edom, from
Bozrah, with his garments stained crimson?
Who is this, robed in splendor, striding
forward in the greatness of his strength?
"It is I, speaking in righteousness, MIGHTY
TO SAVE." Is. 63:1. (emphasis mine)
Edom means, �RED� because of the red-rock
and sandstone in this ancient civilization
in the Bible which is now modern day Jordan.
Bozrah means �SHEEPFOLD� and was the capitol
of Edom. God declares through the Prophet
Isaiah that Edom would be �MIGHTY TO SAVE�
and that Salvation and a Messiah would come
from Her. Indeed it did. Albuquerque and
the entire Four Corners area is distinctly
known because of its red Sandstone and red
landscape.
As we ministered that evening the Lord
said in no uncertain terms that Albuquerque
would be God�s Edom in these last days and
He would send out a mighty mandate for WORLD
HARVEST and it would be a city MIGHTY TO
SAVE. It would also be a SHEEPFOLD or a
City of Resources and Refuge in harrowing
times and a capitol city of God�s power and
deliverance in the vast Four Corners region
of Utah, New Mexico, Arizona and Colorado .
There would be Joseph like divine strategy
and wisdom to reach out into areas
throughout America and the world that have
been assaulted by darkness and evil.
ACTS 5:15 THE CHURCH ON THE STREETS
God also said that Acts 5:15 would become
a spiritual precedent as the streets of her
cities would be ignited with Salvation -
there would be no place safe from the Good
New of Jesus Christ,
�As a result, people carried their sick
into the streets. They placed them on
stretchers and cots so that at least Peter's
shadow might fall on some sick people as he
went by��
God�s presence would not only be
recognizable in the churches but in the
streets, desert and open air. There would be
nowhere you could go that His presence would
not be made manifest and tangible. God was
going to �take off the ceiling� and lower
the sick in. As I left Albuquerque on
Monday morning for my flight home to Georgia
I was left with a innate and distinct
feeling that I would be returning soon to
drink from her �River�s of Salvation� and
help trim her wick as God lifts the lamp of
revival in the Four Corners region of this
nation and beyond.

UNLESS A SEED FALLS AND DIES: THE VOICE
OF HAWAII (E ALA E)- IS RISING AGAIN
by Chad Taylor on Wednesday, February 2,
2011 at 4:37p
Remember that cryptic scripture in the
Bible that states, "Unless a grain of wheat
falls to the ground and dies?" As you read
some of the facts below you will be as
amazed as I was and your vision for Hawaii
will take on an entirely different
perspective. Whether you are a native of
Hawaii, have visited her unforgettable
shores before or are a stranger to the
Islands I am certain this will enlighten
you. In a day when kingdoms seem to rise and
fall almost over night and the news of such
places as Egypt grip our attention - this
story of one of our great states and it's
imminent future is sure to encourage you.
ISRAEL KAMAKAWIWO'LE: A SEED
"Iz" (Israel Kamakawiwo'ole) left this
earth on June 26th, 1997, this "voice" of
Hawaii began a meteoric rise all over the
world capturing the hearts of millions -
even being heard in outer-space. You may
remember Israel Kamakawiwo'ole from songs
such as "Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful
World" featured as a sound track in the
movies Meet Joe Black and Finding Forrester,
and in "50 First Dates" & The 2010 IMAX:
Hubble 3D feature.
There is no other explanation except
God's hand that can catapult someone from
virtual obscurity on a far away Island in
the middle of the Pacific Ocean and raise
them up to such a stature to reach the world
a million times over; and this is after they
have died. Not only has Israel's songs been
heard all over the world and continue to
rise on the charts every year since his
untimely death in 1997- they have been heard
in outer-space on NASA missions and have
become a proverbial sound to millions.
Israel Kamakwiwo'le is a seed in the soil of
Hawaii's posterity and future.
HAWAII: FACING FUTURE
Iz's first album has now went platinum
multiple times since it's release in 1993.
The cover-art and title carries
the cryptic and prophetic message for
Hawaii, "FACING FUTURE". The day I arrived
in Kona, HI. last week Jan. 26th Iz's song
had hit #1 in Germany for the second time in
5 years. Hawaii's role in the nations has
only just begun and Germany is simply one of
them. God is about to ratify Hawaii to such
an extent that She will be honored and
needed more than any other time in its rich
and illustrious history. As Hawaii faces
her future the winds of change are beginning
to blow in gale force.
GOD'S ALOHA TO THE NATIONS
Aloha in the Hawaiian language means
affection, love, peace, compassion and
mercy. The inherent anointing on Hawaii is
going to be a crucial part in breaking the
spirit of death and tyranny in many volatile
parts of the world such as The Middle East
and North Korea. Hawaii will be a critical
"ground zero" in world missions eclipsing
any of her previous efforts. The sons and
daughters of Hawaii will be one the world's
last great missionary campaigns. They will
carry the "Balm of Gilead" and their "Aloha"
will impact the hardest and most resistant
nations in the world. They will certainly
be God's fire to melt hearts of stone.
HAWAII'S FORECAST: HISTORIC BREAKTHROUGH
Israel "IZ" Kamakawiwoʻole is a prophetic
picture of Hawaii as a whole. Not since the
days of Hawaai's monarchy has their been a
voice from the Islands that has been heard
on such a world-wide scale. Israel is only
a "seed"; a voice coming from Hawaii that
will shape future world-events rivaling any
other nation before it. Hawaii's future
forecast is historic breakthrough on a scale
never seen aforetime. Iz became a "voice of
Hawaii" and his death and consequential seed
is about to multiply and impact the world in
more ways than ever imaginable. "However,
as it is written: "No eye has seen, no ear
has heard, no mind has conceived what God
has prepared for those who love him" - 2st
Cor. 2:9
HAWAII'S PROPHECIES OF THE PAST AT LAST
When the last living Queen of
Hawaii Liliʻuokalani was circumvented and
lost the Islands to the U.S. in 1893, she
prayed in her appellant letter to the
world, "God will listen to the voice of His
Hawaiian children lamenting for their
homes..." And indeed He is. Like those
biblical characters mentioned above, Hawaii
is indeed "getting back Her voice" on a
global scale. Liliʻuokalani's prophecy of
Hawaii's voice is coming to pass now.
In her book "Hawaii's Story" her
prophetic letter to the world is being
fulfilled. She writes, "My great-grandaunt
Queen Kapiloani plucked the sacred berries
from the borders of the volcano, descended
to the boiling lava, and there, while
singing Christian hymns, threw them into the
lake of fire breaking forever the power of
Pele the fire goddess..." The breaker
anointing is going to foreshadow all of
Hawaii's future events and endeavors.
THE VOICE OF HAWAII
On my recent trip to Hawaii God told me
to tell the Hawaiian people that "THE VOICE
OF HAWAII WILL BE HEARD AGAIN." There are
many examples in the Bible when people had
lost their voice or thier impact such as
Zechariah after he heard the declaration of
the angel regarding the birth of his son
John or Hannah when she prayed for a son.
Jesus was silent before His accusers as
well and dumbfouned his enemies because of
it. Jeremiah is much like Hawaii now when
he wrote in chapter 20:9, "But His word was
in my heart like a burning fire shut up in
my bones; I was weary of holding it back,
and I could not..." God's prophetic word
and destiny for the entire world in Hawaii
is about to erupt. It cannot be held back
any longer.
E ALA E: ARISE!
I played Iz's music in every church I
visited with that very message in Kona,
Kapaau, Hilo, and Pahoa - I prophesied the
greatest days of Hawaii's future lie ahead.
The song from Israel "Iz", "E Ala E" became
our anthem and the lyrics are as prophetic
today as when they were written on the Album
with the same title in 1995: "We, the voices
behind the face, Of the Hawaiian nation, the
Hawaiian race - Rise for justice the day has
come For all our people to stand as one..."
E Ala E means: ARISE or WAKE UP. God is
calling the Hawaiian people to Arise and
"wake up" to the call of God and begin to
blaze a trail of reformation and revival
around the world. God said this last week
during my visit, "As the star led Kings to
the manger - so will Hawaii be like a star
leading Kingdoms to Me now". Hawaii is the
epicenter. It is the "Hokulea" which means,
"the Star of Happiness". He also reminded
me of the mysterious oil that continues to
glisten on the waters at Pearl Harbor as a
haunting reminder of that fateful day in
1941. God said to me, "My anointing on
Hawaii and its people is like the oil on the
waters of Pearl Harbor, it will never leave
and My purposes for Hawaii and the nations."
THE RING OF FIRE AND WORLD MISSIONS
42 nations surround Hawaii in what is
called the "Pacific Rim" or "Ring of Fire".
Hawaii is "Ground Zero" for much of the
world's evangelization and is taking on a
much larger role in the coming days. Some of
the cities of influence and social economic
power in the Pacific Rim as listed
in Wikipedia are: Auckland, Busan, Brisbane,
Guangzhou, Ho Chi Minh City, Hong
Kong, Kobe, Lima, Los
Angeles, Manila, Melbourne, Nagoya, Osaka, Panama
City, Portland, San Diego, San
Francisco, Santiago, Seattle, Seoul, Shanghai,
Singapore, Sydney, Taipei, Tokyo, and
Vancouver. It has begun.
A short video clip of Iz shortly before
he died was sent to me after I arrived in
Kona, HI. capturing a live concert sharing
his faith in Jesus and appealing to the
youth on drugs. Many people are unaware
that Israel was saved later in his life and
that he had such strong convictions. His
heart's cry to the parents and youth alike
is a taste of what's to come as thousands of
similar voices arise and "WAKE UP" Hawaii.
I watched another video when they cast
Israel's ashes into M ākua
Beach, thousands lined the shoreline and
fiiled the water with boats and bodies, the
Lord spoke to me and said, "This is the
closest Hawaii as come to revival in over
100 years and this seed is about to break
out on her shores again..." The voice of
Hawaii is only beginning to be heard and her
music, culture, faith and influence is going
to quantum-leap in the coming moments, weeks
and years. I am honored to be a witness of
it. Believe with me... Chad Taylor (Please

"I assure you, most solemnly I tell you,
Unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth
and dies, it remains [just one grain; it
never becomes more but lives] by itself
alone. But if it dies, it produces many
others and yields a rich harvest..." - John
12:24 Amp.
In the year 1998, Kamakawiwo'ole's
recording of "Over the Rainbow/What a
Wonderful World" featured as a sound track
in the movies Meet Joe Black and Finding
Forrester, and in "50 First Dates"
IZ�s Facing Future, with Over The Rainbow
sung by Iz, is the first album of Hawaiian
music, by any Hawaiian artist, or group, to
be certified Platinum (1,000.000 copies) by
RIAA the RECORDING INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION of
AMERICA after his death...The Wonderful
World was ready to be released and debuted
at #1 on the Billboard World Chart and
remained in the top 5 slots of that chart
for 2 years.
"Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful
World" reached #12 on Billboard's Hot
Digital Tracks chart the week of January 31,
2004 (for the survey week ending January 18,
2004), and passed the 2 million paid
downloads mark in the USA as of September
27, 2009.
On July 4, 2007, Kamakawiwoʻole debuted
at No. 44 on the Billboard Top 200 Album
Chart with "Wonderful World," selling 17,000
units.
In April 2007, "Over the Rainbow" entered
the UK charts at #68, and eventually climbed
to #46, spending 10 weeks in the Top 100
over a 2 year period.
"Over the Rainbow" previously played
during the Atlantis STS-122 mission on Feb.
7, 2008.
In October 2010, following its use on a
TV advertisement it hit #1 on the German
singles chart, selling 300,000 copies.
The 2010 IMAX: Hubble 3D feature uses
both "What a Wonderful World" and "Somewhere
Over the Rainbow" with the latter playing
over the ending credits.
As of November 1, 2010, "Over the
Rainbow" peaked at No. 6 on the OE3 Austria
charts, which largely reflect airplay on
Austria's government-operated Top 40 radio
network. It also peaked at No.1 in France
and Switzerland in late December 2010.
On December 6, 2010, "Iz" was named one
of the 50 great voices on National Public
Radio. It is also used in the 2009 BBC
(British Broadcasting Corporation) Series
"South Pacific" as the intro track.
The week of December 20th, IZ� single
�Over the Rainbow� was released in France
and also hit number 1. In more Europe news,
the Single for �Over the Rainbow� was also
released in the United Kingdom and is
swiftly climbing the charts.
If you were watching the ball drop in
Times Square in person or on TV this past
New Years Eve, you may have noticed that
once again New Yorkers celebrated this New
Years with many songs, including IZ�s �Over
the Rainbow�.
The Hawaiʻi State Flag flew at half-staff
on July 10, 1997, the day of
Kamakawiwoʻole's funeral. His koa wood
coffin lay in state at the Capitol building
in Honolulu. He was the third person in
Hawaiian history to be awarded this honor,
and the only one who was not a government
official. Approximately ten thousand people
attended the funeral. Thousands of fans
gathered as his ashes were scattered into
the Pacific Ocean at Mākua Beach on July 12,
1997.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GOD'S ROAD TO
REVIVAL: THE FUSE HAS BEEN LIT
by Chad Taylor on Wednesday, August 25,
2010 at 3:34pm
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GOD'S ROAD TO
REVIVAL: THE FUSE HAS BEEN LIT
As I watched a video of another, what
seemed like an endless series of outreaches
lately in Southern California, I saw a fuse
that was burning intensely. A great fire had
been kindled and the fuse of historic
revival was ignited. I saw a fuse that was
beginning to burn in a divine route
strategically positioned and certain cities
were in the direct line of fire of this,
�road of revival�.
This fuse was rolled into a tight bundle
and it was clear where it began: Anaheim. A
city of over 300,000 was by no means the
largest in this region but its location was
a hub of activity that accommodated people
from around the world. Like a Jerusalem in
the book of Acts it is a epicenter - the ebb
and tide of millions as a great fuse of
revival was being lit.
As the fuse began to burn brightly
luminescent to my surprise it went forth in
two entirely different directions � North
and South. It weaved it's way into city
after city like a scarlet thread of God's
grace and power. It burned brilliantly and
it illuminated and enlightened people to the
knowledge of God everywhere it burned.
Anaheim was founded in 1857 by wine
makers and grape farmers. From this historic
hub will now come a great harvest of fruit
that would impact and heal the nations of
the world. All of it's history paled in
caparison to the intent of God now for her
future.
I saw trees of righteousness bursting
through the fallow ground of old systems and
methods springing on the scene with witty
inventions and groundbreaking ideas for
outreach, charity and missions. It was
certainly a renaissance of revival as the
Gospel according to Jesus in Luke 4 took
center stage:
�The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,
because he hath anointed me to preach the
gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal
the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to
the captives, and recovering of sight to the
blind, to set at liberty them that are
bruised.�
I saw this brightly lit fuse burn into
Fullerton, Long Beach, Huntington Beach,
Irvine, Santa Ana and myriad of other cities
nearby. The fire of revival � a great
stirring in the hearts of people for the
things of God burned in their hearts. It was
like one great outreach or crusade as every
city was busy with it's poor, lost and
unreached. The beaches were filled with
baptism.
This fuse continued to burn intent to
reach it's southern border. It collided with
Mission Viejo, San Clemente and Oceanside as
it burned down the I-5 corridor into San
Diego. Everything was burning with a single
purpose and focus as churches of all sizes,
denominations and backgrounds gathered in
the streets, parks, beaches and stadiums in
a crescendo of worship and outreach. The sky
was red and lowering as the Spirit of God
filled the horizon.
The Universities and college pantheons
became what was like �powder kegs� and
exploded under the heat of God's fire. It
was like something torn out of a history
book when great orators and theologians
could be heard on the universities such as
C.S. Lewis and D.L. Moody - yet now they
were young and unorthodox and their approach
was radical and fresh. Youth everywhere were
preaching Jesus Christ and Him crucified.
The other end of the fuse burned
northward through Cypress, Signal Hill,
Torrance, Hawthorne, Downey, Maywood into
East Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, Santa
Monica and greater Los Angeles. The streets
were on fire! Like a lava flow from a
exploding volcano it burned everything in
its path. It was bright, brilliant and
breathtaking.
This fuse burned and was impossible to
extinguish as it had been in the past. Los
Angeles and San Diego were two great
book-ends of revival as it spread like an
inferno around the world. Asia was on a
direct line-of-fire as great shafts of fire
shot out hitting all of Asia and the East.
It was like a firework finale as sparks and
streaking light like lightening lit up the
foreign horizon with revival from Southern
California. It's destiny was intact.
City after city looked like glowing
embers of fiery light as I looked down from
an aerial view. I saw open graves like
Lazarus as ministries that seemed no longer
relevant or remembered suddenly rushed on
the scene their first love reignited doing
the first works God had originally imparted
to them. Many were bikers, former gang
members rough and ruddy like David in the
Bible but their hearts melted in the hearth
of God's fiery love. Everywhere this fire
burned as Southern California was consumed
with the Fire of God.
"I came to set fire to the earth, and I
wish it were already on fire!� (Luke 12:49)
VISION OF THE HARVEST
by Chad Taylor on Saturday, July 24, 2010
at 12:37am
I have had this repeated vision over and
over the last 22 years since I was saved. I
have seen impressions of it when I walked
across America in 1990 with only a sleeping
bag and a "Jesus Saves" sign blazed across
my backpack in neon red. I have seen the
vision while walking the streets of this
nation�s largest cities long after midnight.
It has engraved itself in my conscience as I
preached on the streets of Seattle at the
age of 18 with only the homeless and the
gutter as my congregation. I have seen the
same vision while ministering in the sultry
south on the mean streets of Atlanta where
racism and religion still prevail. Over and
over the past 22 years this panoramic vision
of the harvest has left its enduring mark on
my soul and finally now I am to make it
plain. Make it plain so that those that read
it can run � run into this field the bible
calls, �The Harvest�.
VISION OF THE FIELD
I saw a field going on endlessly as far
as the eyes could see. It reminded me of the
gravity of Abraham's vision in Genesis when
God said, "Then He brought him outside and
said, �Look now toward heaven, and count the
stars if you are able to number them.� (Gen.
15:5). That's how boundless this harvest
field was. It stretched on and on in every
direction until it left you dizzy with the
sheer magnitude of it all. As I continued to
look down the endless rows of wheat I saw as
it were a figure far off in the distance
working. The heat waves coming from the hard
packed ground made it difficult to see so I
stepped into the field to look closer. I
glanced down at the furrows and rows and I
noticed much of the ground was hard-packed
and fallow, yet other smaller parts were
dark with fertile soil and tilled. Large
sections of the field that I could see from
my vantage point were un-harvested and the
ground showed signs of neglect, fallow, hard
and dry.
As I continued walking toward the figure
that I had seen deep in the field I heard a
peculiar sound as if it were coming from all
directions. Like a distant whine or a baby
crying? I stopped to listen more closely. I
heard it more audibly now as I paused - it
was a mournful cry like someone weeping. As
I listened more intently I heard the Holy
Spirit say to me, "It's the cry of the
harvest, a forgotten abandoned harvest, like
a baby left discarded from its mother!" I
could clearly hear the mourning and crying
from this wide harvest field as if it was
crying out to be redeemed, accepted and
received. I was shaken and my heart broke as
I heard the pitiful cry of the harvest all
around me. The words of Job sounded like a
crashing symbol in my spirit, �O earth, do
not cover my blood; may my cry never be laid
to rest! �O earth, do not cover my blood;
may my cry never be laid to rest!" (Job
16:18)
VISION OF THE RIVER
I continued walking and the cry from the
harvest seemed to wane and it appeared that
the figure in the field was now even farther
away. As I continued to walk down the rows
which were mostly dry and cracked
unexpectedly I caught the scent of water! I
abruptly turned toward the breeze that
carried the smell of fresh water wafting
through the air and began to run toward it.
I pushed through row after row of
heavy-laden stocks of wheat bent over and
low bowing to the ground. I sprung right
through one more row and there it was - the
river.
I was taken aback in this series of
endless rows of grain and then abruptly this
gaggling river. Before I could run and leap
into the cold water drinking from its
welcoming shore I looked at what was before
me and I was still. In the river and along
its sides were hundreds if not thousands of
men, women and children jumping, swimming
and laughing. I yelled from where I was at
near the edge of the harvest field only a
few dozen yards away but they could not hear
me. The people were deaf to my cries as if I
was not even present. Didn�t they see the
figure working in the distance all alone?
Didn�t they hear the despairing cry coming
from the very field that was all around
them? Didn�t they see the massive field that
was left unattended and forgotten? Couldn�t
they see me just a stones throw away waving
my hands and shouting? Some were even gazing
intently into the river as if they were
hypnotized by its ebb and tide. It was
uncanny.
The river was so intoxicating and
appealing it took a great deal of effort not
to be drawn closer by its strong allure and
promise of refreshing. I was about to step
in closer when the sound of crying and
mourning grew louder. The cry of the harvest
pierced my heart again and I turned back
toward the field. I saw the lonely figure in
the now setting horizon and was determined
to forge ahead.
I looked back one more time at the crowds
and the river. I was amazed that they were
somehow completely unaware of the vast
expanse of field that surrounded them on
both sides. The persistent cry of the
harvest could not reach their ears; either
because of the festivities or a mystery that
I did not understand. I tried shouting again
and pointing toward the figure alone in the
field but no one even glanced at me or
heard. A sudden anguish swept over me as a
revelation of the immense labor left undone
as the field stretched out for endless miles
around me. Solomon in his equally endless
wisdom wrote, �There is an appointed time
for everything. And there is a time for
every event under heaven.� I knew beyond any
doubt at this moment it was time to labor.
The fields were ready. They were ripe. I
called to mind another scripture that leapt
from the pages of the Bible, �Whoever
gathers in the summer is a wise son. Whoever
sleeps at harvest time brings shame...�
(Proverbs 10:5) Lord, never let me be put to
shame!
VISION OF THE HEADSTONE
I finally turned my back on the river and
took in the rich harvest anew before me.
Jesus exhortation to his early disciples in
Matthew was now in striking clarity as I
gazed out at the field, �The harvest is
plentiful, but the laborers are few.
Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the
harvest to send out laborers into his
harvest.� I asked myself that very moment,
�Lord, did I forget to pray!?�
I began to walk doggedly toward the
lonely figure and at times I stopped because
of the heat. Then unexpectedly, I stumbled
upon what seemed like a stone or some kind
of marker off ahead in the dirt. It looked
like a carved stone or rock apparently there
for some inherent purpose. I noticed
bouquets of flowers, all kinds of
memorabilia and small personal items
scattered around. As I drew up closer I knew
what it was � a grave marker like in a
cemetery and clearly inscribed on it was the
words, �The harvest is past, the summer is
ended, and we are not saved�� (Jeremiah
8:20)
I was aghast. Below this agonizing
inscription I saw specific years of the
calendar etched in its stone: 1610, 1689,
1705, 1790, 1830, 1875, 1920, 1945, 1970,
1989, 2000 and so forth. Other dates were
recorded below but were worn and illegible.
I knew what they were- times and seasons,
dates and generations where a great cycle of
harvest had come upon the earth and had not
been seized; a Kairos moment that had come
and gone. At the very top of the marker was
one more number as if it had just been cut
into the stone - 2020. I was cognizant in
that moment that between the year 2000 and
2020 was another divine cycle or season for
the harvest of souls in the earth. 2020 was
a divine mile-marker in the world�s history
and also a great signpost for Heaven as
well. I dropped to my knees right there in
the field and cried aloud and prayed, �Lord,
send out laborers! Lord, here am I send me!�
Flowers and trinkets adorned the
headstone as if generation after generation
had paid homage to times past rather than
seize the moments that they had then.
Historic opportunities had come to win the
world to Christ but had passed them by. I
was melancholy and sad as I watched this
memorial stone fade behind me as I continued
to walk deeper into the field. What I saw
next was unforgettable. The headstone was
now only a memory when out of the heat-waves
and swaying wheat I saw an angel and a
woman.
VISION OF THE ANGEL AND THE WOMAN
She was dressed in what appeared to be
biblical era clothing and was gleaning in
the field behind what was clearly an angel.
Her faded lavender dress was laden with
wheat as she filled a large basket beside
her. A red sash was around her waist. I knew
exactly who it was � Ruth! The Ruth I had
been recently reading about and ministering
from in the Bible. That vivid illustration
in God�s word where Ruth followed the
reapers in Boaz�s field was right there
before me. I remembered the scripture in
Ruth that stated, �And she went, and came,
and gleaned in the field after the reapers��
(Ruth 2:3).
It was such a sight to see the angel a
few yards ahead of her with a scythe cutting
the wheat in bushels. They both worked in
tandem reaping the wheat seamlessly in a
synchronized motion as if it was rehearsed.
I stared in awe at this amazing sight and I
knew it was prophetic; a divine message
played out in this drama unfolding before
me. Then the words of Jesus in Matthew added
one more stroke to this masterpiece I was
beholding, ��the harvest is the end of the
world; and the reapers are the angels��
(Matthew 13:39).
Ruth is a picture of an end-time church
following the Kingdom of God into the fields
of nations preparing the way of the Lord. A
time was now upon us that we would work with
the angels of Heaven invisibly in the
immense field that lie before this present
generation. Heaven and earth would work
unprecedented in unison to see it reaped. I
remembered in Jewish tradition that on every
Pentecost the book of Ruth is read. On
Pentecost in the upper-room when they were
waiting on the promise the Holy Spirit�s
power that would take them around the world,
the story of Ruth was repeated. Today as I
stood in this vision I saw it too. We are
the Bride that would find Her Boaz, Her
Christ, in the threshing floor of nations.
That�s where the lovers of God would truly
be found. I prayed that He would find me
there too � in the field.
VISION OF THE CLOUDS
Abruptly and without warning a dark cloud
came down blackening the air with strange
smells and acrid smoke. I was nearly blinded
my eyes watering as this strange cloud
descended. It took all of my senses not to
give in to a sudden feeling of drowsiness;
my eyes grew heavy and I could barely walk.
I was like a drunken man weaving back and
forth in-between the rows of wheat
staggering. Voices came from somewhere in
the smoke, it sounded strangely like music
and then at other times it was incoherent. I
was disoriented and confused and I
desperately tried to find my way out of the
cloud. As this disturbing experience
continued a specific scripture arrested me,
�Watch and pray so that you will not fall
into temptation. The spirit is willing, but
the flesh is weak." (Matthew 26:41).
I fell to my knees as this terrible smoke
swirled around me and I began to pray
loudly, �Lord, here am I, send me! Lord,
lead me not into temptation but deliver me
from evil!� As I continued praying a breeze
which transformed into a gust of wind began
to blow and the cloud retreated. I knew this
wind was the Ruach HaKodesh or the Spirit of
God. The same wind that brought the dead
bones to life in Ezekiel and the same wind
that blew through the upper-room and sent
them outward to the uttermost part of the
world. It was that same Spirit which was
clearing the dark smoke from the air now
giving me a clear vision of the harvest
field again and the lone figure in the
distance. I had my senses back.
As I looked out again at the endless rows
of wheat I saw similar dark little clouds
appearing swirling. These clouds were
distractions and mirages that caused many to
withdraw or to simply freeze and do nothing.
I recalled another scripture as I stood
where the cloud had once been only seconds
ago and I prayed it out loud, �God has
delivered us from the power of darkness, and
hath translated us into the kingdom of his
dear Son!� (Colossians 1:13).
VISION OF THE SAINTS
I continued to walk now with more resolve
and I began to see large patches of field
already reaped in sheaves. Every 100 yards
or so I would come upon another swathe of
harvest that was thoroughly cut down and
laying in perfect piles of sheaves bound
tightly in bundles. I marveled at the
harvested portions of field and wondered out
loud who could have done it. I looked more
closely and I saw memorial markers or
capstones near the middle of these cleared
out areas. I walked up to one in particular
in a very large and wide harvested area and
it read simply, �Corrie Ten Boom�.
I walked on further and I read another
capstone in a cleared area nearby and it
read, �William and Katherine Booth�. Each
area of field had a small memorial to the
Christian that had harvested so diligently
in it. Most of the names I had never heard
of before. Others I had only heard or read
before in books and memoirs such as, �Jim
Elliot�, Hudson Taylor, and D.L. Moody�.
I continued to walk observing each
harvested area and finally I stopped to pray
in another clearing. I prayed out loud,
�Lord, let there be a small memory of my
work on this earth as well, whether it is be
read by others or not, let my short life
mean something even as these others before
me have.� I remembered the prayer of David
and I said it out loud as I stood staring
down at the small memorial stone with the
name perfectly etched, �Billy Graham�.
�Lord, remind me how brief my time on
earth will be. Remind me that my days are
numbered--how fleeting my life is�� (Psalm
39:4)
VISION OF THE LONELY CHRIST
I stubbornly left this last patch of
harvested wheat not wanting to depart,
somehow thinking that one of these great
harvesters would step out of the field to
meet me. No one did. I was once again drawn
to the lonely sentinel that worked in the
field ahead. As I focused on the personage
again it didn�t seem as far as it was
before. I could now make out the face and
appearance. It was Jesus. He was sweating
and dirty working vigorously and tirelessly.
He looked up at me and wiped the sweat from
His brow and said, �So, pray earnestly to
the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers
into his harvest.�
He had such a sad look on His face yet I
knew He was happy to see me. I had pressed
on and not been deterred even by the
glorious things I had glimpsed � the river,
the saints before me, the angels and the
woman that harvested. I had pressed into the
field even beyond the frightening cloud that
had tried to stop me. He spoke again, �Awake
you that sleep, and arise from the dead, and
Christ shall give you light.� I was awake.
(Ephesians 5:14).
I knew this was a prophetic panorama of
the great harvest of humanity that Jesus had
spoken of in the Bible. It was also a stark
revelation of the utter lack of laborers
despite over 2000 years of enterprise. Now
after all that I had seen in this vision
nothing could compare to the lonely
anguished look on Jesus� face as He invited
me into, �the fellowship of His suffering�.
I remembered in the garden of Gethsemane He
had asked his disciples to pray with Him in
that, His darkest hour. Now, He is not only
requesting us to pray with Him but to work
with Him in the harvest fields of the world.
The colossal expanse of human life where the
more than half of earth�s populations have
never even heard extolled the name of Jesus
Christ. As this vision was ending Jesus
stopped toiling for a moment and looked back
at me with a look of kindness. He handed me
His threshing instrument and said almost in
a whisper, �Ask of me, and I shall give you
the heathen for your inheritance, and the
uttermost parts of the earth for your
possession.� I bowed down greatly.
Psalm 2:8

URGENT: STRATEGIC, PREVENTATIVE AND PROPHETIC "LINCH PINS"
OF PRAYER FOR THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE
Chad Taylor
Apr 3, 2010
Received and Written Saturday April 3rd, 2010
PRAY FOR THE STREETS AND SUBWAYS OF LONDON
I saw the labyrinth
of underground subways and tunnels in London. The
enemy is saying or proclaiming,
"London bridges falling down, falling down..." but
what the enemy has meant for evil I have meant for good.
Pray for London. Pray for her churches and pray
for her people. Pray for Southwark and the
Southern roads, gates and entrances to London.
Something from beneath the city is going to be revealed
that will bring healing and serve a restorative purpose
and the enemy is trying to prevent it. I saw the
dates of Passover from now, the first week of April, to
England's St. George Day the national day of England
April 23rd, 2010 and to pray specifically Isaiah 58:12
and that destruction would "pass over" London: "And
your ancient ruins shall be rebuilt; you shall raise up
the foundations of many generations; you shall be called
the repairer of the breach, the restorer of streets to
dwell in."
Chad
PRAY FOR AFGHANISTAN AND A STRATEGIC ARMY BASE
Bagram Airbase became a
key point as the Lord revealed these strategies of
prayer.
Pray the plot to destroy a military base in
Afghanistan is averted and many lives are spared.
I saw the date of Israel's Independence April 19th and
Jerusalem Day May 12th as a specific target of the enemy
in this region and adjoining states. I heard the
Lord say, "6 days before and 6 days after pray
for deliverance in Afghanistan." More
specifically I received this scripture to pray over
Afghanistan during this time: "The steadfast
love of the Lord never
ceases; mercies never come to an end; they are new every
morning; great is your faithfulness."
Lamentations 3:22-23.
I heard the Lord say,
"On the 33rd day of Omer a harvest in the Middle East
will begin for what the devil meant for evil will now be
good and for a harvest!" (May 2nd)
STAND IN THE GAP FOR THE GAZA STRIP AND ISRAEL
Literally I saw a picture
of a person STANDING IN THE GAP
between Israel and the Gaza Strip. I saw a great
hand of prayer intercepting a bomb; a bomb with great
destructive nature able to destroy a large portion of
land and people. I saw the route it was coming
being passed from person to person - it came
South from Egypt
from an underground passageway under the earth.
Prayer was paramount to intercept this attack - PRAY FOR
THE GAZA AND STAND IN THE GAP!
I saw a window of
opportunity for the enemy from the
"17th of Tammuz" until Tisha B'av.
Many of Israel's saddest moments in history were during
this 3 week time between the fast of Tammuz and Av.
I see this time as very prophetic BOTH presently and
historically as a time the enemy deployed and will
deploy his attacks on Israel and her people . It was
during this time that the walls of Jerusalem were
breached and the 1st and 2nd Temple was destroyed and
other calamities. According to Jewish tradition
this is known as "the saddest day in Jerusalem's
history..."
This time between June
29th, 2010 and July 20th is a time when the enemy is
plotting destruction not only in Israel but around the
entire world making Israel "ground zero" and to bring a
time of "sadness and destruction". But the power
of prayer can repel this and disarm these long awaited
and targeted attacks from the enemy that reach far
back into history. This is the scripture to pray
from now up till the times mentioned above:
"So shall they fear the
name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the
rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a
flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard
against him." Is. 59:19
PRAY AGAINST THE ENEMIES PLAN IN IRAN AND RAISE UP A
STANDARD
I saw a blueprint being
unfurled in Iran for world domination. Even
as the enemy unveiled this plot in Germany during in
WWII the same strategy for world domination was
surfacing again in Iran. I heard this scripture
with great clarity, "And to the angel of the
church in Pergamos write, These things says He who has
the sharp two-edged sword: �I know your works, and where
you dwell, where Satan�s throne is..."
Revelation 2:12-13. A seat of satan's
authority was being established in Iran and only
targeted and sustained prayer could usurp it.
I saw a window of strategy
and prayer opened up between now and the "Fast
of Gedaliah" Sept. 12th, that precedes the
Jewish new year. Gedaliah
saved the life of the prophet Jeremiah and was a
"intercessor" for Israel in a very crucial point in
biblical history. I see this date in 2010 as a point of
God's salvation again for the people of God in Iran,
Israel and the world; God's prevention of the enemies
destructive plots and plans through our prayers.
It is also a time to receive God's wisdom and pray with
great accuracy and power for the nations, governments,
and kings of the earth that will result in a historic
coup d��tat of the enemies plans in key places in the
earth. The scripture to pray during this time that
will carry with it great anointing and power is the
prayer of David found in Psalm 2:8 - it will act not
only as a commissioning prayer but a preventative
prayer: "Ask of Me, and I
will give You the nations as Your inheritance, and the
uttermost parts of the earth as Your possession."
POINTS OF PRAYER AND
STRATEGY IN REVIEW:
- 33rd Day of Omer May 2nd, 2010
will be a day to pray for harvest in the Middle East and
the world
- Between June 29th & July 20th
the 17th of Tummuz and Tisha B'av that the enemies
plots on Israel would be disarmed and ultimately many
would be saved in Christ.
- Sept. 12th during the "Fast of
Gedaliah" that God's wisdom, mercy and power would
prevail in the Iran and the world.
- Pray for London and England
during Passover through St. George Day April 23rd
- Pray Ps. 2:8 over the nations
mentioned and the world:
"Ask of Me, and I will give You the nations as Your
inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth as
Your possession."

Women's Aglow: The
Spark that Lit the Flame
by Chad Taylor
** This year I was invited to speak at three Women's Aglow meetings
in Central California (this was my first time speaking at any Aglow meetings).
During the meetings I heard such a clarion word from the Lord for their
ministry, thus the title to this prophecy/article. It is a mighty crescendo for
ministries such as Women's Aglow as their complete destiny comes into the
crosshairs of God's impeccable timing and will.
The Esther Factor, The Gallows, Will Now Be Their Gain
"As calamity and international intrigue continues to
rise and men's hearts fail because of fear (Luke
21:26),
a secret weapon is about to be launched as in the days of old," says
the Lord. "Even
as I kept Esther hidden until the moment of Israel's crisis, so have I
hidden another. For in this generation an anointing is resident in My
handmaidens that will soon crush satan under their feet (Romans
16:20).
For I will cause an authority to rise within their
ranks that will usurp the leviathan and open the ancient gates. For in
this hour those that have remained faithful to My call shall be the
spark that lights the flame. Though they have diminished in
number and many have wagged their heads and exclaimed, 'What will come
of them?' Now will they rise up in rank and number and lead My army into
battle. Their anthem will be, 'The sword of the Lord and of Gideon!'" (Judges
7:18).
The Promise Keeper Was Only a Seed...Now it's Time to Give Birth!
"Even as other movements have garnered the attention
of kings and presidents and one million was their mark, I tell you that
you will exceed these numbers as a double portion of favor and power
with God and with men comes upon you (Genesis
32:28).
"Laws and legislation will be swayed as the sheer
numbers of those that rally with you fill the city streets and converge
on the epicenters of the world. You will be a force to be reckoned with
as these ministries that are even now established on the earth begin to
prevail. Previous ministries before you and those that currently abide
with you were merely the seed that was sown. Now the time of increase
and birth has come.
"Your prevailing prayers as you
converge on capitol cities of the world will conceive
results that will be staggering. That magnitude of impact will translate
entire regions out of darkness into My Kingdom in hours and days
(Colossians 1:13).
Nations will be born in a day."
Who hath heard such a thing? Who hath seen such
things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day or shall a
nation be born at once? For as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth
her children.�Isaiah 66:8
Look to the Olympics in 2010 - the Women Will Prevail!
"For even in the secular realm and the fields of
competition, this anointing will be clearly seen as records and
standards are broken. An anointing to prevail shall be upon My
handmaidens, and like Miriam they will dance on the fields of victory
and triumph of every sort and kind (Exodus
15:20). This anointing will saturate
and permeate existing realms and many that have been broken and shunned
will suddenly find favor.
"Present doctrine that has quenched the spirit of My
handmaidens shall be overturned and the pervasiveness of it will now
fall away. Many women will be unmasked as this anointing overturns
centuries of dogma that has kept them hidden and enslaved. Watch and see
if this is not the spark that lit the flame," says
the Lord!
"As the gun of grace goes off these ministries will explode from the
blocks and canopy the world with My fire. They will be trailblazers of a
new era and season as the nations are steered into My heart and plan. The
race has begun."
...let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her
closet...�Joel 2:16
The Vision of the Sparks and the Hand of the Lord
A clear and present vision followed this word. I saw the hand of the
Lord unfurl from a clenched fist and inside were bright burning sparks.
As I looked at this site before Me the face of the Lord leaned toward
the sparks and He blew on them. These sparks went from His Hand into the
nations of the earth. I could see a few of the sparks as they landed in Australia,
New Zealand, Holland, Zimbabwe, Brazil, Canada and the United States.
Many more were caught in the winds of the Holy Spirit and were carried
to divers and sundry places throughout the planet, burning and igniting
as they hit. I heard the Spirit of the Lord say:
"These are my end time ministries; my end time handmaidens and they are
much different than many would suspect. They will be like Esther was to
My enemies, and the gallows will become the catapult to bring them
before kings and queens. The very thing that came against them shall now
become the means to which I bring them to the uttermost parts of the
earth."
My Bride Will Be Found in the Harvest Field, Not the Dressing Room
"They that presently desire to be intimate with Me will find their
threshing floor; their harvest field."
And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Naomi, Let me now go to the field, and
glean ears of corn after him in whose sight I shall find grace. And she
said unto her, Go, my daughter. And she went, and came, and gleaned in
the field after the reapers...�Ruth 2:2-3
"For surely the beginning of My harvest has
come and those called out will find Me in the field as Ruth
found Boaz. Who can hear for the time to come?"says
the Lord. "Who can hear for the time to come?"
So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter in law, with
her, which returned out of the country of Moab: and they came to
Bethlehem in the beginning of barley harvest.�Ruth 1:22
"For those called in this hour will be My Bride
running from the dressing room into the threshing floor and they will
find their inheritance there (Psalm
2:8). The trumpet is now sounding."

THE
SECRET STATES ARE
NOW �A STATE OF THE
UNION�
As we
were crisscrossing
the nation twice in
one week I began to
see different states
and present
spiritual insights
often not seen when
flying overhead. As
we spent many hours
passing through the
vast state of
Wyoming I heard this
statement from the
Lord numerous times,
�THE SECRET STATES
ARE NOW A STATE OF
THE UNION!".
These
�Secret States� or
states of this
nation that are
often forgotten and
lower in population
density Montana,
Wyoming, North and
South Dakota are
becoming God�s
�STATE OF THE
UNION�. From
these overlooked and
often less desirable
states is about to
come strategy that
will solve many of
this nation�s
dilemmas such as
oil, energy, and
space. Like
Solomon�s Stables
resources are biting
at the bit so to
speak to be released
and are soon to leap
from the stalls. At
the Wedding of Cana
God has saved His
best for last.
WYOMING A WATERSHED
OF GOD�S GRACE
A
place historically
known for its wild
frontier and
sprawling landscape
is a hidden geyser
of God�s resources. It
will one day rival
any other source of
oil in this nation. Pipe
lines of oil will
stretch from Wyoming
to as far away as
Texas providing
energy to many
foreign countries. This
�Quad-State� of
massive reserve
Montana, Wyoming,
North and South
Dakota will become a
hub of massive
resource and global
energy. It
will also be
transformed from an
unlikely place for
people to live into
a booming Mecca of
employment and
provision.
MONTANA A MOUNAIN OF
WORSHIP AND WARFARE
In
the state of Montana
a union between
worship and warfare
will be established
that will be fuel
for the fire of
industry and
breakthrough. A
warlike spirit of
intercession will
rise up defying
modern trends of
passivity and
pleasure that is
often oblivious to
the sudden shifts in
the Spirit. The
lines of demarcation
will be clear as
Montana takes flight
from the fields of
obscurity to set the
next precedent for
worship, prophecy
and prosperity. Missions
will be set in
motion on a global
scale from these 4
states setting the
standard for years
to come.
NORTH
DAKOTA AN OUTPOST OF
WORLD MISSIONS
As
the economic and
spiritual landscape
shifts North Dakota
will emerge as an
end-time powerhouse
of resourcefulness. With
Joseph like
qualities North
Dakota will help
steer the nation in
famine and crisis. A
compulsion for
divine compassion
will be the
spiritual rudder
driving her to the
uttermost parts of
the earth. An
international
identity will emerge
as commerce and
trade become common
place. A
bridge to Asia and
the Middle East will
be built creating a
trans-pacific jet
stream of spiritual
renewal and
industry. The day
of your visitation
has dawned.
SOUTH
DAKOTA GOD�S SECRET
PLACE REVEALED
National attention
will mount as this
hidden state becomes
a pearl of great
price. Its
stock and value
shall rise
exponentially as
commerce and trade
increase. For
in these places they
will say �It�s an
anomaly� who can
explain it? Who
could have predicted
it? For
in the very places
that were overlooked
will now become an
epicenter in some
locations even over
night. As
the Railroad blazed
a trail through
these states in its
history so will the
future be marked by
groundbreaking
moments in travel
and export. Speed
and efficiency shall
be common place in
Montana, Wyoming,
North Dakota and
South Dakota. THE
SECRET STATES ARE
NOW A STATE OF THE
UNION!
GOD'S DOROTHY AND
THE CHURCH'S OZ: THE
LONG ROAD TO REALITY
by Chad Taylor
Jun 25, 2009
I n
the original book by
L. Frank Baum "The
Wonderful Wizard of
Oz" published in
1900, the "wizard"
appears to each of
the characters
differently or is at
least perceived
differently. To
Dorothy, the Wizard
is a giant head; the
Scarecrow sees a
beautiful woman; the
Tin Woodman sees a
ravenous beast; the
Cowardly Lion sees a
ball of fire. Each
one sees exactly
what they want to
see but they all
fail to see who the
"wizard" really is -
a fake. He is not
the "Great Oz" at
all, but an old man
that travelled
before them in a hot
air balloon. The
burning desire to
reach their
destination obscured
reality and drove
them to see what
they only wanted to
see. Once reality
came crashing down
they were forced to
continue their
journey without the
mirage of smoke and
mirrors and special
effects. They now
had to accept the
truth that what they
were so desperately
seeking for their
own self-fulfillment
is exactly what they
already had in the
first place. Today,
the current wide
spread movement with
it's promises of
grand spiritual
experiences has
become a "The
Emerald City" or
"City of Emeralds"
found in Baum's
novel. We have
become the Tin Man,
the Scarecrow, the
Cowardly Lion. Our
desire for something
more than what
already is has led
us down a yellow
brick road of false
experiences and
sleight of hand. The
truth however is
just the opposite,
it is a world in
deep need of a
Savior and His
matchless salvation
recorded centuries
ago and bound in
Scripture. It is a
Church that needs to
navigate back to the
shores of reality no
matter how far she
has drifted and
anchor again in the
bedrock of biblical
truth and light.
Gone it seems is the
day that it was more
popular to be a
suffering Christian
than a satisfied
one. When Hebrews
Chp. 11 was read it
was with awe and
admiration as we saw
firsthand from the
sidelines of history
those that embraced
the ultimate call -
their life for
Christs'. To them it
was a guarantee of a
"better
resurrection" not an
easier one.
They were a rare
breed that garnered
the incredible title
of,
"whom the world
was not worthy".
"Destitute,
afflicted, and
tormented" were
not taboo but medals
of honor on
the breastplate of
these historic
Christians.
Today, personalities
and personas are
heaped upon us to
such an extent we
have
created icons out
of Branham's and
Allen's who in the
end, were left with
shame and tragedy;
misguided and
disillusioned. Would
you rather don the
mantle of mistakes
or the humble attire
of martyrs and
missionaries?
Surprisingly most
today would chose
the
latter. Dissipating
it seems are the
days when it was
more esteemed to be
a Jim Elliot who
gave his life on the
frontlines of
violent mission
fields or even a
Hudson Taylor who
poured his life
out on the daunting
shores of dark China
with no accolades or
conference
invitations. His
epitaph should have
read,
"To live is Christ
and to die is
gain..."
Paul the Apostle's
day the greatest
honor was to suffer.
Power was not handed
out on a "fast
track" or a
conference line, a
catered lunch
buffet, or some
other surreal
spiritual experience
the reality was a
holy invitation to
the gauntlet of
suffering and
persecution which
Paul wore well. The
greatest joy in the
Bible was discovered
in suffering!
It was not a last
ditch option on the
ladder of revelation
but rather the
opposite - it was
the first step into
any genuine
experience with God.
Suffering and
self-denial was the
undertow of
everything that
Jesus spoke and did
and it sliced
through the enamored
crowds like butter.
It was the
only precursor to
really following
Jesus and to be His
disciple,
"If any man
will come after me,
let him deny
himself, and take up
his cross daily, and
follow me."
(Luke 9:23) It
was not
a loudly claimed
"third heaven
experience" or
floating orbs in a
Kodak snapshot that
qualified you to be
His disciple.
It was rather a
self-denying life of
less privilege but
more power to change
the very world you
lived in and salvage
human souls.
"If any
man will come after
Me, let him deny
himself..."
What follows this
self denial?
"...and take up his
cross daily, and
follow me."
A cross is not a
life absent of
suffering or trial
but rather a
staggering choice
every Christian must
make to suffer and
meet trials and
tribulation head on.
You cannot "go after
Him" unless you are
completely willing
to "suffer with
Him."
As this paradox
lives itself
out in the
Christian's life
a power and
glory is
released that is
unprecedented.
Today a facade
affronts us at
every turn
alluring us in
it's claims of
angels, gold
dust
and jewels. Finally,
like Hansel and
Gretel the
Church has
become a
candy-coated
house filled
with every
indulgence and
flavor.
Witchcraft has
seduced
multitudes into
a hypnotic false
peace as the
world teeters on
the brink of
utter
destruction.
Just as the
story of Hansel
and Gretel the
witch lures the
children into
the Gingerbread
House with all
of it's candy
and sweets only
to trick them
and ultimately
try to eat them
herself. The devil
comes to kill,
rob and destroy
the true message
of Jesus Christ
replacing it
with "another
gospel".
The preaching of
God's Kingdom in
America is an
endangered
species in a
Jurassic Park of
bloated promises
and
exaggerated experiences
leaving millions
ignorant of the
Suffering Christ
and His message
of true
salvation. It's
hard to be with
the "least of
these" when air
conditioned
cruise ships
with grandiose
promises of His
presence is your
alternative.
Paul the
Apostle's
revelation of
Jesus was
staggering as he
recorded these
words,
"Though he were
a Son, yet
learned he
obedience by the
things which he
suffered..."
(Heb 5:8)
THE DOCTRINE OF
MANTLES: THE "OZ EFFECT"
Like the
characters in the "Wizard of Oz" we too are seeking
desperately for "gifts" or attributes we perceive our
spirituality to be unbearable without. The veils
of deception appear "holy" as the face of false
spiritual experiences parade behind the curtain claiming
to be something it is not. Like the old
man perpetrating to be "The Great One" there is nothing
that he can offer except what we perceive he can.
He offers hearts, brains and courage but the reality is
it is moth eaten dreams in a closet of man made mantles.
Modern movements of our day seem to have a closet full
of these for the taking as they defer to doctrines of
men and not God. Paul exhorted the early Church to "put
on Christ". "For as many of you as have been
baptized into Christ have put on Christ." (Gal
3:27). He went even further to enforce this when he
confronted this doctrine in the city of Corinth,
"Now this I
say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of
Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. Is Christ
divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized
in the name of Paul?"
(1 Cor 1:12-13).
Who then is Branham and who is Kuhlman and who is Lake?
Who is Allen and Dowie? Many of these modern day
Christian icons died in complete deception often
believing they were "Elijah" or some other biblical
character. Many of these doctrines have found there way
into the Christian mainstream again as thousands follow
the yellow brick road of false promises for a "mantle"
or anointing.
Zion, Illinois
founded by John Alexander Dowie was a not a Christian
institution of divine inspiration but rather a seed bed
of disillusionment that became an Emerald City of false
hope. A good intentioned man fell off the cliff of
egotism and false doctrine claiming to be "Elijah the
Restorer" founding the "Christian Catholic Church". Have
we changed much today? Rather than "put on Christ"
and His anointing we offer the mantles of men before the
masses and like "The Wizard of Oz" we hide behind
curtains promising this and that. In the stark streets
of the world these names mean nothing, their triumphs
and defeats are mere echoes to the One who died and rose
again. In the Muslim backdrop of the Middle East
promises of mantles and mysterious anointing of Etter,
McPherson, or Kuhlman will have no effect; your only
answer in a maelstrom of death and persecution will be
the Name above all names- Jesus Christ.
"Neither is
there salvation in any other: for there is none other
name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be
saved."
(Acts 4:13). The
doctrine of mantles is on shifting sand and is a mirage
to the true Glory of God found only in Christ Jesus .
The trumpeting of this message will soon fall on deaf
ears as an army of disciples take center stage who have
learned to worship God in "Spirit and in Truth". Read
further in the Gospel of Luke,
"for that
which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the
sight of God." (Luke 16:15). The "Oz Effect"
is dimming and the necessity of Jesus Christ will
prevail and His anointing and Spirit will be enough.
A "WONDERLAND"
OR GOD'S KINGDOM?
The milk of
self-indulgence
and Christian
pleasure has
hypnotized many
into a dream
world of
fixations, fake
visitations and
a slide show of
special effects
that have left
the crowds numb
with false
expectation. The
modern day
minister has
become the "Mad
Hatter" with
endless
innuendos of
glory and power
that is never on
the
radar of altering
the state of the
real world
around them.
Like a gaudy
B-rated movie
that promised a
blockbuster
showing but in
the end is a
cheap seat in a
dark theatre of
men's
imagination.
Jesus is not the
leading role in
this production
rather a million
manifestations
marching to the
beat of a
strange drum
have taken
center stage.
Scripture is so
misconstrued
it's difficult
to discern fact
from fiction as
this science
experiment gone
wrong is
unveiled. A
Frankenstein of
doctrine
is unfurled with
incomprehensible
side effects as
Jesus is left on
the afterburner
of this modern
jet stream
claiming to be
prophetic. Yet
behind the
scenes is
stirring a roar
about to be
heard above the
din
of imaginations
and idolatry;
another company
of "Jesus
Freaks",
martyrs, and
modern day
missionaries. They
will have the
doctrine of
Jesus Christ,
the King of
Kings and Lord
of Lords. They
comprehend as
all the saints
that stood
before them that
He alone is Way,
the Truth and
the Life; there
is no other
conceivable way
into God's
Kingdom but
through Him.
They will refuse
to eat
the candy and
dainties of
present "kings
and kingdoms"
but will be
catapulted past
the
dispensationalist
into a real
genuine Christ
experience.
Rather than
follow the
"white rabbit"
of current
movements that
lead down a
endless hole of
strange
experiences they
will stand
strong on the
foundation of
Jesus Christ.
The vision of
harvest that
Jesus
illustrated will
be their
mainstay as they
crash down on
the shores of
every living
creature and
Preach His
Gospel. They
will be a church
mature and grown
up. They will
desire the bone
and marrow of
His purpose
rather than the
watered down
milk of pleasure
and wantonness.
"For when
for the time ye
ought to be
teachers, ye
have need that
one teach you
again which be
the first
principles of
the oracles of
God; and are
become such as
have need of
milk, and not of
strong meat. For
every one that
useth milk is
unskillful in
the word of
righteousness:
for he is a
babe..."
(Heb 5:12-13).
They will have
the diet of
their Master -
"Jesus
saith unto them,
My meat is to do
the will of him
that sent me,
and to finish
his work..."
What is His
work?!
Read the
following
passage, "Say
not ye, There
are yet four
months, and then
cometh harvest?
behold, I say
unto you, Lift
up your eyes,
and look on the
fields; for they
are white
already to
harvest..."
(John 4:35).
This army coming
now to the front
and center will
have one driving
passion and
purpose,
TO FINISH
HIS WORK.
"And this
gospel of the
kingdom shall be
preached in all
the world for a
witness unto all
nations; and
then shall the
end come."
(Matt 24:14).
They will
conclude that
the only way
"home" is to get
past the
vernacular of
their day and
into the Kingdom
of God. To
"seek first His
Kingdom" will be
an all
consuming compulsion
moving them into
the deep waters
of spiritual
transformation.
PASSION FOR
PLEASURE: THE
TRAGIC EXCHANGE
The road to
glory is not
paved with good
intentions and
false promises
but rather a
place of
splendid
suffering where
Christ is
revealed in us,
"the hope of
glory". Let's
pray then that
we are those
"Jesus Freaks",
modern day
martyrs and a
Church that has
matured no
longer
influenced by
the infantile
teaching of our
day. Let's
follow the steps
of Jesus and
the rare
company of missionaries
who gave their
own blood,
families,
desires and
appetites to a
greater cause
and refused to
be a casualty of
dispensation.
Let's heed the
words of another
martyr as we
race against the
clock as our
present age
gallops to the
finish line, "I
no longer depend
on pleasant
impulses to
bring me before
the Lord. I must
rather respond
to principles I
know to be
right, whether I
feel them to be
enjoyable or
not..." (Jim
Elliot 1927 -
1956.) Jesus'
passion is still
the gospel
preached to the
poor, the
captives and
prisoner. What
is ours?
Ask the Lord now
to remove the
shadows of
shifting
pleasure dressed
in a spiritual
affront that has
eclipsed the
real Light and
Truth and His
love will pierce
the darkness.
You will return
"home" to a
gospel according
to Jesus and
reignite your
first love.
Clear the table
of books, c.d.'s
and the mountain
of distraction
and reintroduce
yourself to a
harvest bursting
from the ground
around you. The
gravity of
conferences and
the "wonderland"
of spiritual
experiences will
not intoxicate
your senses any
longer, you will
be on fire with
new purpose and
wisdom.
"And Jesus
answered and
said, Verily I
say unto you,
There is no man
that hath left
house, or
brethren, or
sisters, or
father, or
mother, or wife,
or children, or
lands, for my
sake, and the
gospel's, But he
shall receive an
hundredfold now
in this time,
houses, and
brethren, and
sisters, and
mothers, and
children, and
lands, with
persecutions;
and in the world
to come eternal
life. But
many that are
first shall be
last; and the
last first..."
(Mark 10:29-31).

THE SWINE FLU
PROPHECY AND PENDING
EVENTS
by Chad Taylor
May 13th, 2009
"And there
was there an
herd of many
swine
feeding on
the
mountain:
and they
besought him
that he
would suffer
them to
enter into
them. And he
suffered
them. Then
went the
devils out
of the man,
and entered
into the
swine: and
the herd ran
violently
down a steep
place into
the lake,
and were
choked..."
(Luke
8:32-33).
During a
prophetic
worship
session on
our recent 5
city tour in
Southern
Oregon and
Northern
California a
very
peculiar
word came
forth during
the extended
worship. I
began to the
hear the
Lord booming
in my Spirit
and I began
to publicly
prophesy as
the music
continued,
"Do you see
this swine
flu as swine
infect human
beings? But
I tell you
tonight it's
the swine
that should
be infected
with our
deliverance!
It's the
swine that
should be
infected
with our
deliverance
and disease!
When Legion
was
delivered
from his
demons it
was the
swine that
carried his
demons over
the cliff
and
perished;
you will see
a sign and a
wonder as a
great wave
of
deliverance
hits the
earth. Even
as the enemy
has used the
swine to
infect
humans so I
say to you
now just the
opposite
will happen
in the
Spirit!"
The
scripture in
Luke became
paramount as
this word
was being
declared,
"Then went
the devils
out of the
man, and
entered into
the swine:
and the herd
ran
violently
down a steep
place into
the lake,
and were
choked..."
It was not
happenchance
in Jewish
culture that
the demons
went into
the swine
and
perished. In
God's Law
swine were
unclean and
were
forbidden to
eat or
touch. (Lev.
11:7). Later
becoming the
vessels of
which
Legion's
demons came
out and
driven off
the ledge to
perish. The
very object
of this
current
global
crisis was a
sign of
deliverance
and freedom
in biblical
proportions.
THE POWER OF
OPPOSITES:
THE JOSEPH
FACTOR
There is
much to
comprehend
in this
short
scripture in
Luke chp. 8.
The demons
begged Jesus
to suffer
them to
enter the
swine -
which He
did. "Then
went out the
devils from
the man..."
The unclean
spirits went
into the
unclean
animals and
both
perished in
the sea. As
these events
unfold
around the
world there
is a
spiritual
dynamic
taking
place. The
Spirit of
the Lord is
being
released
during this
time to
bring
deliverance
to nations
that are in
great
political,
social, and
spiritual
peril.
Mexico has
been gripped
in a deadly
drug war as
the
government
desperately
attempts to
regain some
semblance of
moral
control.
Drug Lords
and their
henchmen are
fighting
ruthlessly
against any
moral and
spiritual
change.
Ultimately
the Spirit
of
Deliverance
is being
poured out
upon Mexico.
In the
spiritual
landscape of
polar
opposites we
see the
origins of
what the
world is
calling the
"swine flu".
In God's
providence
it is a
divine set
up to lead
millions
into
salvation
and
deliverance.
In such a
historic
moment the
Joseph
factor comes
into play.
Prayerfully
and
earnestly
read the
following
scripture
and promise
and apply it
to these
current
events:
"But as for
you, you
thought evil
against me;
but God
meant it
unto good,
to bring to
pass, as it
is this day,
to save much
people
alive." (Gen
50:20).
The end
result in
God's plan
was not to
bring death
and
destruction
but rather
to "save
much people
alive". The
law of
spiritual
opposites
begin to
play out in
the earth.
What the
devil meant
for evil
God's final
intent is to
make it
good. in a
time of
global
famine the
will of God
prevailed
and raised
up a people
to "open all
the
storehouses"
and bring
deliverance
to the
nation. You
see, this
current
crisis is
really the
divine stage
set for the
"Josephs" or
the
deliverers
to take
center stage
and SHINE;
a unparalleled
time to lead
millions to
Jesus Christ
and His
salvation.
The power of
the Cross
and the
Gospel
become
second to
none in
grave times
such as
these. As
what appears
to be evil
sweeps the
globe it
also acts as
a spiritual
siege
crashing in
the doors of
resistance
making way
for the
preaching of
the Gospel,
healing and
deliverance.
"And we know
that all
things work
together for
good to them
that love
God, to them
who are the
called
according to
his
purpose..."
(Rom 8:28)
THE SWINE
ARE ONLY A
SIGN OF
PENDING
REVIVAL
And when he
had spent
all, there
arose a
mighty
famine in
that land;
and he began
to be in
want. And he
went and
joined
himself to a
citizen of
that
country; and
he sent him
into his
fields to
feed swine.
And he would
fain have
filled his
belly with
the husks
that the
swine did
eat: and no
man gave
unto him.
And when he
came to
himself, he
said, How
many hired
servants of
my father's
have bread
enough and
to spare,
and I perish
with hunger!
I will arise
and go to my
father, and
will say
unto him,
Father, I
have sinned
against
heaven, and
before thee,
And am no
more worthy
to be called
thy son:
make me as
one of thy
hired
servants.
And he
arose, and
came to his
father..."
(Luke
15:14-20).
The swine
were the
final
"curtain
call" for
the revival
to follow as
the prodigal
son returned
home. As we
face famine,
pandemic,
floods,
fires and
all other
sort of
peril could
it be any
other
outcome than
what we read
in the
Gospel?
Could it be
a great
coming home
is on the
horizon as
millions
return to
Jesus in the
backdrop of
epic peril?
On the
scriptural
landscape
this was
exactly what
occurred.
"And he
arose, and
came to his
father..."
This
"arising" is
recorded in
other
prophetic
moments in
the bible as
well,
"Arise,
shine; for
thy light is
come, and
the glory of
the LORD is
risen upon
thee. For,
behold, the
darkness
shall cover
the earth,
and gross
darkness the
people: but
the LORD
shall arise
upon thee,
and his
glory shall
be seen upon
thee." (Isa
60:1-2) As
this current
crisis
continues it
will only be
a line of
demarcation
for revival
as nations
such as
Mexico are
prepared for
sweeping
revival.
Where you
see the
swine,
remember it
is SIGN of
revival soon
to follow.
"And when he
was come
into the
ship, he
that had
been
possessed
with the
devil prayed
him that he
might be
with him.
Howbeit
Jesus
suffered him
not, but
saith unto
him, Go home
to thy
friends, and
tell them
how great
things the
Lord hath
done for
thee, and
hath had
compassion
on thee. And
he departed,
and began to
publish in
Decapolis
how great
things Jesus
had done for
him: and all
men did
marvel..."
(Mark
5:18-20).
MOSES IN THE
WILDERNESS
AND THE
PREACHING OF
THE CROSS
And the LORD
said unto
Moses, Make
thee a fiery
serpent, and
set it upon
a pole: and
it shall
come to
pass, that
every one
that is
bitten, when
he looketh
upon it,
shall live.
And Moses
made a
serpent of
brass, and
put it upon
a pole, and
it came to
pass, that
if a serpent
had bitten
any man,
when he
beheld the
serpent of
brass, he
lived." (Num
21:8-9). The
very thing
that was
"meant for
evil" now
became a
symbol of
deliverance
as Moses
lifted up
the bronze
serpent in
the
wilderness.
In the same
way the
preaching of
the Gospel
is now more
crucial than
ever as evil
runs
rampant.
Nations that
have been
resistant
and violent
toward the
message of
Jesus will
now look to
Him as their
only hope.
If there has
ever been a
time to
return to
the
"preaching
of the
cross" it is
right now as
a global
stage is set
to bring
deliverance,
healing and
salvation.
"For the
preaching of
the cross is
to them that
perish
foolishness;
but unto us
which are
saved it is
the power of
God." (1 Cor
1:18).
This will be
a crossroads
for
the world
wide church
as well as
it is faced
with
unprecedented
crisis and
fear and
turn to the
only viable
answer, "The
preaching of
the Cross."
It will
become to us
and the
world around
us "the
Power of
God" like no
other time.
in places
such as
Mexico City
what was
once a place
of deep
opposition
to change
are
transformed
into a
divine stage
of massive
healing and
deliverance
as "the
devils went
out of the
man, and
entered into
the
swine..."
The day of
the
evangelist
has returned
as a Spirit
of
deliverance
and
salvation is
poured out
on all
flesh. In
this crisis
it is our
shining
hour. "And
as Moses
lifted up
the serpent
in the
wilderness,
even so must
the Son of
man be
lifted up:
That
whosoever
believeth in
him should
not perish,
but have
eternal
life." (John
3:14-15).
THE BLOOD
BATH IN
MEXICO WILL
BECOME BLOOD
ON THE DOOR
POSTS
And they
shall take
of the
blood, and
strike it on
the two side
posts and on
the upper
door post of
the
houses..."
(Ex 12:7) In
Egypt many
people
perished and
yet God's
Passover was
instituted
and more
were saved.
In Mexico as
the very
moral fabric
seems to be
tearing
apart a time
of
"Passover"
will occur.
Many cities,
villages and
regions will
become
places of
salvation
and great
deliverance.
Key leaders
even as the
Pharaoh did
in Egypt
shall
relinquish
their
control over
the people
and secede
from
darkness to
the Lord.
Entire
regions will
beseech
ministries
to come and
preach the
gospel as
their only
recourse in
famine, flu
and
violence.
Jesus will
be lifted
up!
Many of
these events
will not be
publicized
as mighty
miracles
raise the
dead at a
rate
incomparable
in modern
history in
areas
plagued by
current
crisis'. In
other cities
it will be
published on
television
channels and
every means
of
communication sounding something
like this
"prayer
and
preaching
will occur
and such and
such
location...city
sanctioned
prayer
meeting
today at
12pm..."
It will
become even
mandatory
that entire
regions
attend these
meetings to
stem the
sickness and
disease.
Virtually
unknown
evangelists
will be
harbingers
of great
hope and
power as the
Cross of
Jesus Christ
is preached.
Great
evangelists
of the past
will be
replicated a
thousand-fold
as entire
cities
become
center-stage
of
grassroots
revival
overflowing
into every
public place
with the
sheer
expectation
of what God
will do
next. Many
ministers
who have
faded from
the public
eye will now
be thrust
back into
the
frontlines
reenlisted
as God makes
a world wide
call to arms
to "fight
the good
fight of
faith.
Remember,
"The Swine
are only a
sign of
pending
revival..."

by Chad Taylor
ALBUQUERQUE, NM.: GROUND ZERO
 At
a prophetic conference in Albuquerque,
NM during a intense moment in worship a
profound insight into the history of the
city and the United States was revealed.
As I began to prophesy it was like
a covert well of critical information
was uncapped. I began to prophesy,
"Something covert, in the night!
Something under cover in secret was done
in this city. It brought a anti-Semitic
spirit and has cursed the region and
even the state of New Mexico.
Something was done in secret like Judas
for his 30 pieces of silver. In
1944, 1945, 1946 something was done in
this city in secret under the cover of
the night. The Lord is revealing
it now that this curse can be broken. It
brought a anti-Semitic spirit into this
state..." The prophesy continued
for several more minutes as the Lord was
breaking up fallow ground of historic
relevance that we would later learn
was paramount for breakthrough in
Albuquerque and the state. The
following day a native of New Mexico
brought me some profound information she
had researched and printed up. I
was flabbergasted. It was common
history to many or at least it was known
history, but the dates, locations and
background were astounding in light of
the previous nights prophecy.
Julius Rosenberg was the
son of a Polish garment worker living on
New York's Lower East Side.
Julius's success in the study of Hebrew
led many to believe he would
later become a Rabbi. However, by
the age of 16 he was a committed member
of the New York City College's Young
Communist League. Later marrying Ethel
and in the fall of 1940 he took a job as
a civilian employee of the U. S. Army
Signal Corps. Late in 1943 Julius
Rosenberg began his espionage against
the United State of America during the
World War. Rosenberg began to contact
key individuals that would be necessary
to infiltrate the Los Alamos base where
the nuclear bomb was being constructed.
What is now known from popular movies
and history as the
"Manhattan Project".
Rosenberg's brother-in-law David
Greenglass was assigned to work as a
soldier-machinist in Los Alamos and the
dark secrets and espionage began which
would lead to treason and
death. Greenglass prepared handwritten
notes and sketches relating to a
high-explosive lens mold being developed
in a Los Alamos laboratory .
Twice in
1945 a British
physicist named Fuchs met with a Soviet
agent named "Raymond" and provided notes
on the working design for the atomic
bomb. By June 1, authorities knew of a
soldier, stationed at Los Alamos,
married with no children, who
Gold or code name "Raymond" paid
$500 to in September of 1945 in
Albuquerque in exchange
for information about the implosion lens
for the atomic bomb. This soldier was
none other than the brother-in-law of
Julius Rosenberg - David
Greenglass. In 1997, Alexsandr
Feklisov, Rosenberg's Soviet control
came forward to describe his meetings
with Julius in the 1940's. Julius
and Ethel Rosenberg were executed
shortly after 8 p.m. in Sing-Sing Prison
on June 19, 1953...
After this information
was revealed during the Saturday evening
session at Glory Bound Church in
Albuquerque we began to declare a
breakthrough and healing from these
climatic historic events. The
Rosenberg's were both Jewish which
consequently resulted in a anti-Semitic
spirit to take root in New
Mexico fostering racism, poverty, and
violence. Prophecy is truly a
"two-edge sword" and can be wielded
against strongholds and curses that the
Holy Spirit reveals as a result of
travesties in the past. Judas
Iscariot also acted in espionage against
Jesus for a mere 30 pieces of silver
which resulted in the purchasing of the
"Potter's Field" after his own death by
the Jewish priests. "And after
they had consulted together, they bought
with them the potter's field, to be a
burying place for strangers. For this
the field was called Haceldama, that is,
the field of blood, even to this
day..." (Matt. 27:3-8).
A spirit of rejection and
abandonment is the consequences of a
"Potter's Field" in the earth. It
becomes, "a burying place of
strangers. The field of blood, even to
this day..." Do you have a
"Potter's Field" in your city? Is
their secrets and broken promises just
under the surface of your history?
Chances are, yes. This is why
entire regions, states, and territories
are bemoaning under spiritual stress and
curses resulting in suicides, crime,
injustices, prejudice, hate crimes.
Ultimately religious hierarchies accept
the "pay-offs" and ignore the most
obvious and turn a deaf ear to the poor
and lost in their proximity. Every
city has its "Potter's Field" bought in
the spirit of compromise, indifference
and naivety. In Albuquerque we
took one giant step toward restoration
and revival which will result in a
harvest of salvation from all those that
were lost. I pray the blinders are
taken from all of our eyes and that the
Lord would arm you with a two-edged
sword of revelation to set the captives
free and heal the land.
Albuquerque, NM is just one example of
why we are prophetic and what the
outcome of every prophetic conference of
meeting should be - powerful truth
revealed that sets cities free from
captivity! Find your Potter's
Field.
GOD SAID, "TAKE THE
STAGE!" AND TELL THEM I LOVE THEM!
Last year (2008) I
reported on a phenomenal moment that
transpired on a public stage in
Bismarck, ND. at the Municipal Park
with approximately
two hundred or more in attendance. I
never told you the rest of the
story... This is was not a
pre-planned Christian event or
anything remotely sponsored by some
Christian organization. It was
a secular annual "Hippie Fest" put
on by various bands and sponsors
drawing a local sub-culture of young
and old alike who found a
familiarity in the genre of music.
It was a nostalgic event that was
advertised in the local newspaper
and attended by many. Someone
in the conference at Solomon's Rest
where I was speaking insisted we go
"check it out". This leading
was easy to follow as the entire
conference and already emptied out
into the streets with banners and
bibles in tow and were marching
through the downtown streets.
A few of us went the
couple blocks to the park; as we
entered the "Hippie Fest" a myriad
of colors exploded from the stage
with its loud grinding music with
smoke machines billowing a haze of
strange shapes . The smell of
incense wafted through the air as
people talked and mingled. We were
met with welcoming gestures and
smiling faces as we simply began to
pray and worship Jesus in our small
group from the conference. As
I stood there I began to look to the
Lord heart,
"What do we do now? How can we
have the greatest impact here other
than simply being a light?"
Suddenly the Lord spoke to me
crystal clear, " TAKE THE
STAGE AND TELL THEM "I LOVE THEM!".
I stood there stunned. What
Lord?! Tell them what? They
don't know me, they are not
affiliated with our conference or
religious event! What will I
say? The Lord's word went
through me like electricity, "TAKE
THE STAGE AND TELL THEM "I LOVE
THEM!"
The reality of it hit
me hard as I prayed how this could
be done? The last band of the night
was playing their set which was
appropriately named, "Gypsy
Foot". I was profoundly aware that
the Lord wanted to let every last
person know that He loved them and
was would reach them right where
they were. I suddenly had a
epiphany - EVERY public
place of gathering in the secular
world was simply predestined stages
set for God's love and salvation to
be proclaimed.
But how often do we pass by them
never aware of our responsibility to
share His love or even worse we
avoid these places all together?
I went to directly to
the sound booth adjacent to the main
stage and told the sound man my
strategy. I told him, "I
travel the nation declaring love and
grace, why not this stage tonight?
Let's make an event a movement!"
He was excited and told me he would
find the main promoter and tell her
right now. A few minutes
passed as we all stood and prayed
intensely for this door of utterance
to not close. Finally the
promoter approached me and asked me
what I wanted to do. I told
her. She asked me again,
"What do you want to do?"
I looked at her in the eyes and over
the sound of the music and flashing
neon lights I said, "I want
to declare God's love on this
stage." She looked at
me and simply replied,
"YOU CAN CLOSE THE
SHOW!" Suddenly
the doors of this secular rock
concert was flung open and I was
given total liberty. I was
breathless as the words of Jesus to
His disciples echoed in my heart,
"But when they deliver you up, take
no thought how or what ye shall
speak: for it shall be given you in
that same hour what ye shall
speak.For it is not ye that speak,
but the Spirit of your Father which
speaketh in you..." (Matt
10:19-20). It was no longer me
up on that stage it was the Lord
speaking through me and sharing His
intense immeasurable love. I
was on fire.
I took the stage as
the last instrument wailed and was
met with hugs an admiration from the
band. They had no idea what I
was about to say. I looked at
the hungry crowd and the people
locked in on me. I opened my
mouth, "I travel this nation
declaring God's love. And
contrary to popular opinion God is
still a God of Love and Peace.
A hippie two thousand years ago made
a profound statement, "YOU are the
Light of the world!" I pointed
directly and the crowd and repeated,
"YOU are the light of the world!"
The crowd broke out in crazy
applause and shouting. Some
even yelled, "Amen!". God
moved. As I stood on the stage
and declared His Light behind me in
the ball field hundreds of "lights"
were released in these transparent
balls with tiny candles in them.
It was part of the pre-planned
event! Lights literally
ascended into the dark sky of
Bismarck, ND. The light is not
confined or even defined by a
"church" or a church building with
all of its trappings. No, its
in the hearts of the people who
populate those cities. They are
under bridges, in local parks,
riding their skateboards and playing
their secular music. They
cannot identify with all of our
trends and popular Christian
staples. But they can identify
with Jesus and His broken love for
mankind. Why don't you find
your stage and declare God's love!
To Be Continued...
THE HEARTH OF THE PROPHETS HEART
- A VISION
Chad Taylor
Dec 24, 2008
|
And he said, Hear now my words:
If there be a prophet among you, I the LORD will
make myself known unto him in a vision, and will
speak unto him in a dream. - Num 12:6
�For the vision is yet for an
appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and
not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it
will surely come, it will not tarry�� (Hab. 2:3)
This vision is still vividly etched
on the canvas of my imagination and it paints a
picture of current times. The undertow of current
movements and past dispensations often muddy the
water of the undiluted message of Jesus. The
prophets of old were not inundated with the
avalanche of contemporary Christian markets that
literally package and mass produce every new trend
or movement in the Church today. Thus their message
was not tainted or in �piecemeal� of what others
were saying, doing or experiencing. The
multi-colored quilt of modern meetings has created a
phenomenon where many are more acquainted with names
and personalities that they are with the living
breathing Jesus. They have conveniently forgotten
that Jesus is still found in the �least of their
brethren� not the most popular. There has been a
polarization between the lost unsaved world and the
Christian one that exists to reach it.
What we need now is a revival of the
�simplicity that is in Christ� as Paul stated in 2nd
Corinthians 11:3. Jesus is framed today in the
ideals of an American culture and conveniently
packaged into whatever fits our lifestyles and
appetites. He�s no longer a �suffering Messiah� in a
perpetual state of intercession for mankind. We have
downgraded the Son of God into a �date� where we
simply court him by our need for pleasure and
fulfillment. The words of Jesus seem to have no
effect on many, �And he said to them all, If any man
will come after me, let him deny himself, and take
up his cross daily, and follow me. For whosoever
will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will
lose his life for my sake, the same shall save
it. (Luke 9:23-24).
My vision began as I saw an old
man who was stooping down to the ground writing in
the sand. He seemed so intent on what he was
doing. As I looked at this old man I heard the Lord
say, "This is My prophet; the spirit of the prophet
that has been on the earth since the beginning. This
is the same Spirit that was in Moses� heart and
Jeremiah, Ezekiel and John the Baptist. It is the
same Spirit that dwells on the earth today. But most
have not seen or even heard the Spirit of the
prophet; the Ancient of Days. Men have changed Me
into their own appearances and tried to transform Me
by their doctrines but in Me there is no
variableness neither shadow of turning - I am the
same yesterday, today and forever. What you see in
this old man � My prophet, is what is still visible
today. (James 1:17; Heb. 13:8)
The man was ancient and yet had a
sense of vitality and virtue that seemed to
superimpose itself over his apparent old age.
As I studied his features and behavior he turned his
head up to me and looked at me through eyes that
were like a deep stream of water. They had an
evanescent quality in them and yet even then it
seemed like something was missing, yearning for
something that was once there. Like an old
photograph that was slowly fading. It was
surreal.
The Lord said to me again, �The face
of the prophet was obscure and eccentric until John
the Baptist and only then did it become completely
visible and clear. That is why I promised that
Elijah had to come first through the spirit of the
prophet in John. But something has dimmed
since then - something that I am looking for again
in the heart of this generation and their worship to
Me. John carried the fullness of that Spirit as it
was seen in the baptism. He prepared hearts for
salvation and that is the pure spirit of the
prophet. It brings hearts to repentance through
faith in Christ and brings them into My
resurrection. The prophet and the Apostle were
united in the water baptism of John and that is why
the Savior of the world was there. These two hearts
are being reunited again in the water of salvation
and baptism.
Suddenly the scene changed and I saw
the figure of Jesus towering above the stooped over
old man and the hand of the lord reached from the
vast distance above. His hand reached into the old
man's body and I could see it as if his chest was
transparent and the heart of the prophet was like a
giant hearth or oven. There were hot coals burning
various colors from yellow, red, orange, purple and
blue. The coals on the top were glowing hot
and burning - emanating intense heat.
The Lord spoke again, "These coals on
top are the passions that compel my prophets today
but there is something missing that I have come to
find again deep in the heart of man." The
Lord's hand then reached deeper into the inner
recesses of the prophet�s heart as far as His arm
could reach. Slowly He brought out His arm and
in the hallow of His hand a small coal appeared
black and cold. The Lord lifted this tiny rock
to His partly open mouth and blew. The tiny
coal burst into a red hot flame as red as if it were
blood.
Jesus took in another breath and
exhaled and said, �This is the all consuming Fire of
the Father! It�s what molds missionaries and compels
people to defy their human limitations and do the
impossible. It�s what makes martyrs and those that
will deny the pleasure of this life for a life to
come. They are those written about by Apostle Paul,
�They were stoned, they were sawn
asunder, were tempted, and were slain with the
sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and
goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;
(Of whom the world was not worthy) they wandered in
deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of
the earth. And these all, having obtained a good
report through faith, received not the promise: God
having provided some better thing for us, that they
without us should not be made perfect. (Heb
11:33-40).
This fire is the fire �of whom
the world is not worthy�. What was the
�better thing for you� that they did not
attain? It was the fullness of My Spirit to bring
the hearts of mankind to Me! Peter said it when the
Spirit of this Fire was sent again through the mouth
of the prophets before him, �Then Peter said unto
them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in
the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins,
and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For
the promise is unto you, and to your children, and
to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord
our God shall call. (Acts 2:38-39). That was
the promise that could not be fulfilled without you.
�This fire is being stirred again. It
will pull people from their upper rooms and inner
chambers and what has become interpersonal and
private will once again be displayed openly and
publicly. This is the coal of the desire
for the souls of men and their salvation", the Lord
said. "It was the first coal that I used to spark
the fire in their hearts in the day of Isaiah - �Then
flew one of the seraphim�s unto me, having a live
coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs
from off the altar: And he laid it upon my mouth,
and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine
iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged. Also I
heard the voice of the Lord, saying, whom shall I
send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am
I; send me.� �(Isa 6:6-8). The cry from My Fire
is still, �Whom shall We send?�
It is the fire that provides life for
all the other coals and keeps them burning; without
it the flame will slowly dim and die out. For
many, this has already happened and their love for
Me has waxed cold. They sincerely believe loving Me
is a state of private existence in a form of
godliness and worship yet it lacks the power and
fire to save. Like the Pharisees of old they truly
believe that in the outward show of worship and
prayer that it can have a lasting impact. But rather
it�s in act of loving Me in �deed and in truth�
dealing their bread to the hungry, opening their
house the stranger, clothing the naked, feeding the
hungry and in this mystery they have seen Me. The
outward attire of their own desire is being removed
and My heart will be revealed.
I suddenly recalled the scripture in
the gospel account of Luke as the two men walked on
the road to Emmaus and after encountering Jesus they
made this incredible statement, "Did not our
heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the
way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?" (Lk.
24:32) The fire that burned in Jesus' heart now
burned in theirs then and it was this fire
that compelled them into the mouth of lions, Roman
arenas and ultimately to the �uttermost part of the
earth.� They had the Spirit of the prophet burning
in them as it did centuries ago.
The old man slowly stood up his eyes
blazing with new fire! The grizzled prophet cried
out the words of Isaiah, �But now, O LORD, You
are our Father; we are the clay, and You our potter;
And all we are the work of Your hand!� (Isa.
64:8). He lifted up His hand to the Lord and began
to worship. Beside the prophet was an old plough and
worn deep into the handle was inscribed, �HARVEST OF
SOULS�. The old man gripped the handles of the
plough with all of His strength and cried out in
prayer, �I will not look back again my Lord! I am
fit for Your Kingdom my God!� The hearth of the
prophet�s heart burned hot again and the coal from
the altar in Heaven was now reignited and the souls
of men burned in his bones. A gift was restored to
His people in this season and the world was reaped.
�Now also when I am old and gray
headed, O God, forsake me not; until I have showed
Your strength unto this generation, and Your power
to every one that is to come�� (Ps 71:18)
** NOTE FROM CHAD: We are almost to
the finish line for 2008. We have postponed
any prior scheduled dates until Dec. 31st to stay at
home with family and prepare for 2009.
Please don't give up on us now - help us race past
the finish line with no hesitation. We are
only $1300 shy from our end of the year necessities
which include our everyday living expenses for the
year. Many of you have been in our events this
year and have been shot out like a cannon ball into
your calling and gifts - help us now accomplish
these end of the years goals. There are some
reading this right now that could wipe that obstacle
right now. Your commitment to stand with us is
immeasurable.

THE TIME FOR THE
SOUTH TO RISE IS NOW!
by Misty Taylor
I hear the Lord saying that now is the time for the
South to rise up and become all that he has called
it to be. Are we going to continue sitting around
and waiting on some miracle to happen before we take
action and do the things God has called us to do? He
has given us the ability to do everything he has
called us to do yet there are still so many
unfinished works. God says step up and out and start
doing what I have called you to do. Stop sitting
around watching the future generation kill each
other and do something about it. The enemy is slowly
wiping out the future warriors for God�s kingdom but
what are we doing to STOP it? Just sitting back
praying and fasting for them? Go and pull them out
of the darkness they are in. It is time to step out
of the comfort zone you are in and take action for
God�s property. He is waiting on his people to have
complete faith in him and step out in faith. Don�t
allow another vision to pass you by without doing
something about it.
There may be visions God gave you years ago that you
feel have died and are no longer to be completed.
God says NO the timing is now, trust in me with your
whole heart and do as I have shown you before. If
you don�t do it who will?
Believe in me and I will show you the way. If you
fully trust in me there will be no reason to stop
fulfilling my visions I have given you. The youth
needs you more now than ever. When I say the youth,
I don�t mean just the teens. There are many small
children out there suffering; crying themselves to
sleep at night for someone to show them the right
way. They are my mighty army and I need them to rise
up and become the warriors I created them to be.
They need you and your support to push them into
their destiny! Without your guidance and support
they will be pulled down by the enemy and feel as if
they have no reason to live and no Hope. Step up be
that mentor and make things happen for my future
generation. It�s time to be spiritual parents to
these children. Give them other options. When you
rise up and begin to do the works I have called you
to do the blessings will be poured out over you and
my kingdom.
These dead works must rise again and I�m telling you
the time for them to rise is now. It�s time for the
South to rise again and many riches and abundance
will come from the South. The World will turn to you
wanting to know how they can get what you have. It
is time for you to be a leader and show the world
what God has stored up for them. It�s time to stand
in the gap for past generations and future
generations. The dead is crying out in our behalf
that we see what God has for us. The prayers of
Saints that have gone on before us are coming to
past through you!
It�s time to let go of the hurts that have been
caused the pain we still feel when we see certain
people. God is ready to heal the past and make us a
new people for him. Why should we allow our children
to go through some of the same hurts as we did when
we can do something about it. He is calling us to
rise up and become all that we were created to be.
The time is now will you hear his voice and take
action? This nation is not forgotten! Many leaders
will rise from the South and take a stand for what
is right in God�s eyes. Pray for your leaders and
for their direction.
There are curses that have been spoken over the
South that we need to break. Begin praying over your
city and breaking off all curses spoken over it.
There are roads, buildings, parks, and more that
seem to draw the enemy and his evil doers. Take a
look back and see where the majority of teen deaths
have happened in your city, then take action and
begin to pray against the curses in that area. The
curses must be broken before God can pour out his
entire blessings into your city. Are you going to
answer the call and begin to rise up and do what God
has shown you to do? I see it clearly; God is
holding a HUGE watering can filled with blessings to
be poured out on the South, the prayers of His
people are what help him turn the can upside down
and allow the flood to pour out. His arm in mid-air
but he needs more Faith to help him to pour the
flood of blessings out. I ask you, is the South
really ready to experience all God has for them?
Will they answer his call and do what he tells them?
This is the year for the South to rise! 2009 is the
year for the South! Get involved in you community
and start watching how God blesses your household
and those around you. Hang in there the road might
be bumpy at first,
but don�t give up. Continue to fight the battle and
the outcome will be well worth it.

PALESTINE, LEBANON, EGYPT, IRAN: A CATALYTIC WORD TO
PALESTINE AND THE MIDDLE EAST
Chad Taylor
Lebanon, Egypt, Palestine, Jordan, all of those adjacent
countries and regions. The spotlight of history is
going to turn there again. Progressive events are
about to take place. Not for evil, but for good.
Look toward that place now. Look towards that country.
Look towards that place of your origin. Here we
are once again Lord. We stand again today Lord.
We pray the prayer of David, we sing the song of David.
We pray for Lebanon. Something is
about to change in Lebanon. There is a changing of the
guard. Hear this, there is a changing of the guard in
Lebanon. In the year 2009, people in leadership shall
suddenly change. People in authority shall suddenly
change. The faces you see today are not the faces
you�ll see tomorrow. For I�m changing the governing
authorities in Lebanon. I�m rearranging I�m changing
-hanging of the guard in Lebanon. There is one
specific leader, that the Lord says his season is over.
A new day has begun. I will raise up one after my own
heart. I will raise up the David's. I will raise
up the Jonathans. And the reign of Saul will be over.
His supremacy, the dictatorship of Saul will be over.
The time of David will arrive. Throughout that whole
region the spirit of David will prevail. The spirit of
David -- Davidic worship, a heart after God will prevail in
those Eastern countries.
THE HEART OF DAVID IN
PALESTINE GOD SAYS, "DREAM AGAIN!"
Let's welcome David into
Lebanon! Lets welcome the man after God�s own heart!
Lets welcome the Spirit of David the Spirit of the
worshipper. Where are you David? Don�t you know
its time? Its time for the David spirit to reign in
those countries. The man or woman after God�s own
heart. Its time for the season of Saul to be over.
Those appointed by man�s authority, by man�s desire, and
man�s design. That time is over. God says watch
and see I will raise up a leader, and I will raise up
leaders not only in the religious systems, but in the
governments and in the parliaments. And the spirit of
David will reign in Palestine. Where are you David?
Its time. Declare that! Its time! The Tabernacle
of David will be seen again! Don�t you know its time?
�Here comes David!�
We are singing David's
song again. Take your harps off the trees it's time to
sing! We�ve been like people who�ve dreamed of a time
long ago. I hear the Lord saying, �Dream again!
And those dreams will come true.� Dream again!
Lebanon dream again! Jordan dream again! Your
young men shall prophecy and your old men shall dream
dreams. And upon your children and your handmaiden
shall I pour out my Spirit on all flesh. [Joel 2:28-29]
And I will be the hope of your people and the hope of your
land again. For I am grafting the land back in. I am
grafting the territory back in. They will not be an
outsider, they will not be an outcast they will be known as
part of the tree of life, they will be known as part of my
destiny, they will be known as part of my people once again.
Dream again! And you�ll see it even in governments,
even in European governments, even in NATO and different
governments you will see a grafting back in. And
Palestine and these adjacent countries will sit at the table
of governing authorities once again around the world.
The spirit of David will prevail, and like Solomon, kings
and queens and princes will come and say, �Look at the
wisdom here, look at the wealth, look at the prosperity,
look at God�s blessing in these nations again!�
A SHIFT AND CHANGE IN
2009 AND YOUTH WILL SAY, "IS THERE NOT A CAUSE?"
And there will be a
phenomenon in the streets of Palestine, there will be a
phenomenon on the streets of these cities with the young
people. There will be a grassroots underground
movement in their clubs their music scene, the whole
culture, the whole creativity, the whole conscience of the
young people. There will be a revolution, not one of
violence and uprising but a spiritual revolution of
conscience, of thinking, of contemplation. And in the
schools, the academic world, in the places of higher
thinking and intellectualism the conscience of the young
people will be altered. There will be a change of DNA,
there will be a change of posture, a change of position.
And the zeal of these people will be routed. God will
route the zeal, and harness the zeal of these young people.
And their heart like David will be turned to a cause.
Even as David faced Goliath, he said, �Is there not a
cause?� [1 Sam. 17:29] Is there not a purpose?
A new purpose and a new
cause shall be the underlying current in these nations.
They will be a phenomenon. There will be leaders that
rise up from the age of 19-25. These leaders will have
a clarion voice and they will have a cause like David, and
they will route the enemy. And they will bring a
government of God in Lebanon, in Iran, in Jordan, in Egypt,
and in all these nations! The government of God will
be upon their shoulders. And they will bring a spirit
of Peace, but not a false peace, and not a false hope, but a
peace that only comes from the cross Jesus. And in the
academic field, where doctors and lawyers are birthed and
conceived, in those places of intellectualism and prowess
will come prophetic anointing. From the age of 19-25
there will be an anointing upon these young men and young
women in these countries. And they will bring a voice,
and they will bring a cause! It will change the world
from Lebanon! It will change the world! And the
plots and plans and curses of the enemy will come to
nothing.
In 2009 a shift and a
change shall take place that will garner the attention of
world government, it will garner the attention of media.
All eyes will be upon these states. All eyes will be
upon these countries. And they will say, �Look and see!
Could it be true?! Could it be true?! Could it
be true?!� And I�ll dismantle and disrupt and divide
the forces of darkness that have prevailed for centuries.
In a generation of young people of your children, of your
descendants, of your origins of your lineage shall rise up
from the fallow ground of war, and rumors of war, and they
will have a mind of David and a heart of David and they will
walk with intelligence and wisdom in forthright vision and
they shall change the government they shall change ancient
laws, and God will turn the tables, and God will reroute the
zeal, and you will see prophetic anointing. You will
see great playwrights, great moviemakers, great creativity
come from these countries. It�ll garner Emmys and
Grammys it�ll capture the attention of Hollywood, it�ll
capture the attention of a generation. Great minds
will emerge from the battlefields just like David, from the
fields, just like David.
And a prophetic
anointing shall prevail and resonate to your countries, your
nations. And the spirit of Saul�the appointment and
assignments of men will no longer prevail. That which
God anoints shall rise. Has He not said, �Humble
thyself under the mighty hand of God and I will exalt you in
due time and in due season.� [1 Pet. 5:6] Watch and
see on the streets, watch and see in the culture, for a
cultural melding pot is being stirred. Great minds and
great hearts great poets, and songwriters playwrights, shall
emerge with the heart of David, driving out the demons,
driving out the division. And government will follow
suit. There will be a great changing of the guard in
2009. Watch! Faces, recognizable faces, that are
now on signs, and pictures and murals on the walls will be
faded and gone. And new faces of leadership will arise
and emerge upon the scene with the heart of David.
Pray into these things! Dream again!
SMOKE AND MIRRORS IN
DECEMBER DO NOT FEAR!
I hear the Lord saying
in December, some time at the turn of the year as one year
turns to another there will be a rumor, a smoke and mirrors
of the enemy - a danger, there will be a crisis in these
countries. And the Lord says do not believe it for it
is only a rumor. Do not believe it. It will try
to persuade many. It will try to evoke fear, but the
Lord says do not fear this thing that comes at the turn of
the year. Do not fear this thing, it is only a mirage.
Its only a smoke and mirrors, it is not the truth. My
intentions and my will, will prevail. And as quickly
as it gathers attention it will quickly fade. Like a
vapor of smoke that appeared for a little while that
vanishes away. Do not believe this thing that happens,
do not believe the rumor that comes from these places.
It is not true and it will not prevail. When you see
these things, just say �Dream again.� Dream again
David. About the month of February the month of March,
The Ides of March, watch and see as these things begin as
this great change, this great succession begins to take
place in these countries. Oh the enemy will try to use
rumors�don�t believe it. Look deeper. Watch and
see. The Bible says we prophecy in part [1 Cor. 13:9].
You know what that means? There�s a whole lot more
that we�re not saying. It�s the tip of the iceberg.
A small fraction of God�s intentions. His thoughts
toward us are more than the sand of the sea. [Ps. 139:17-18]
Its too wonderful for us, its past finding o! ut [Ps.
139:6], His intentions, his heart, for you; for your people.

THE LORD SAID, "RED ALERT! RED ALERT! I AM TURNING THE
ORANGE INTO RED"!
by Chad Taylor
I heard these words resound in my spirit
over and over "I AM TURNING THE ORANGE TO RED IN ORANGE
COUNTY!" I knew the Holy Spirit was referring to
Orange County, California where I was to soon minister.
I was reminded of the National security colors as you
pass through the nations airports, "The National
Security Level is Orange today..." This prophetic
revelation would encompass more than 34 significant
cities and their outlying boundaries in Orange County.
Then I heard the Lord say again, "RED ALERT! RED ALERT!
I AM TURNING THE ORANGE TO RED IN ORANGE COUNTY!"
Red is associated with
fiery heat and warmth. It can also mean danger
(burning). In China, red is the color of
prosperity and joy. Red is also the color of
blood, and is a strong symbol of life and vitality. Red
also symbolizes action, confidence, courage, vitality.
Red is often the color worn by brides in the East while
it is the color of mourning in South Africa. Red can
also relate to power and authority, hence the red power
tie for business people and the red carpet for
celebrities and VIPs. Red is hot. It's a strong
color that conjures up a range of seemingly conflicting
emotions from passionate love to violence and warfare.
Then the word of the Lord became clear and vibrant for
Southern California specifically the Orange County area
and outlying regions-
I am laying out the red
carpet says the Lord and My presence shall take
precedence in every area of creation and creativity.
For I am Lord Sabaoth; the Lord of the Armies of Heaven
and in this hour I am escalating the urgency in this
region. Disparity and depravity shall give way to
hope and truth. It shall be overshadowed by many signs
in the heavens above and the earth beneath and all will
surely say, "The Lord's hand is in this!" I will
give My people courage, confidence, and vitality to take
ACTION and move forward. Now is the time to occupy
and heal the land.
I will unfurl the ancient
anointing revealed in prophecy, "The Spirit of the Lord
is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the
gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the
brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives,
and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty
them that are bruised to preach the acceptable year of
the Lord." (Luke 4:18-19). A wave of fresh
vision and anointing for the poor will arrest the
attention of My church and to those that will receive it
I will give them a thirty-fold anointing for the poor
and vagabond. And from this harvest of the "least
of these" shall be reaped a quality of workers second to
none. They will be a "Mary Magdalene" and a "Saul
of Tarsus" to them and many shall be converted and
filled with My Spirit and power.
For in this place called
Orange County will be an immunity and I will prosper
them and give them joy in the aftershock of financial
crisis. I will preserve them and keep them.
I will also purge them and it will be to them as a
season of fire as I burn the dross and bring forth the
gold. THE BEACHES WILL BURN WITH SALVATION AND THE
WELL OF BAPTISM WILL BE RE-DUG. Thousands,
thousands on the beaches burning with My passion and
purposes. Now will a paradigm shift take place and
the minds of My people shall no longer be hinged on the
door of a previous experience but will explode with new
expectation and faith. I AM TURNING THE ORANGE TO
RED IN ORANGE COUNTY!
GOD SAID, "THE OREGON TERRITORY IS A "EPICENTER" OR PLACE
WHERE THE "EPIC" WILL "ENTER"!
By Chad Taylor
The Territory of Oregon was organized on August 14,
1848, by an act of
Congress. It includes the present-day states of Idaho,
Oregon and Washington, as well as parts of Montana. The
Lord brought to my attention other significant historic
moments in that same year of 1848. The year of 1848 was
also a LEAP YEAR and as I discovered that historic fact
I heard the Lord say,
"THE OREGON TERRITORY IS ABOUT TO LEAP FORWARD INTO
ITS PREDESTINED POSITION FOR HARVEST AND REVIVAL.
IT WILL TAKE ON GLOBAL PROPORTIONS' VERY QUICKLY AS MY
PLAN FOR THEM UNFOLDS."
1848 was also known around the world as the, "Spring
of Nations" or the "Year of Revolution".
It was triggered by a series of political upheavals
throughout Europe that spread around the world like fire
which also ignited the French Revolution which
consequently began also in 1848. I heard the Lord
say that this would be a time of epic revolution
and a time when our nation will SPRING FORWARD
as it did in 1848 - 160 years ago. This is a year
that will be a "Spring of Nations" or a
"Year of Revolution" where current
mindsets and processes will be transformed by springing
forward and a spiritual revolution or radical change of
thinking and believing occurs.
The "Year of Revolution" as it has been titled by
historians was not only a volatile time but a violent
one as well. Many countries and continents came
under great pressure both naturally and spiritually as
the earth "groaned" and there was a spiritual "quantum
leap". This will not only be a time of great
spiritual strides but also a time when the world will
come under a degree of suffering as weather, economy and
other political and natural landscapes suddenly change
positioning entire nations for the will and plan of the
Lord.
Two other significant events transpired around the world
that forever changed these countries and deeply impacted
the United States:
The Mexican-American War (1846-1848) and the Irish
Potato Famine (1845-1849). Both of these events
greatly impacted the United States. I heard the
Lord say, "NOW THERE WILL BE A FULL CIRCLE AS I SEND
BOTH BLESSINGS AND PROVISION TO THESE THREE NATIONS;
MEXICO, AMERICA AND IRELAND. YOU WILL SEE A GREAT
REAPING WHERE YOU HAVE SOWN."
The Oregon Territory is deeply connected to these world
events as the epochs of history occurred and the Oregon
Territory was birthed simultaneously. Oregon,
Idaho, Washington and Montana are a EPI-CENTER or a
place where
EPIC is about to ENTER as it once again shapes
world events by its prayers, intercession and outward
acts of faith. I heard the Lord say, "WATCH AND
SEE AS THIS IS CONFIRMED BY WATER, WIND AND FIRE IN THE
NATURAL THROUGHOUT THIS REGION. A
SERIES OF SUDDENLIES WILL MARK THIS REGION FOR MY
PURPOSES."
EPIC breakthroughs financially will now ENTER as the
Oregon Territory becomes a epicenter of His anointing
and provision for world impact. The nations will
become acutely a part of your heart as this year ends
and 2009 begins. You will be strategically in
position both spiritually and naturally to have optimum
impact. Psalm 2:8 will be your springboard that
will underwrite what I do in your heart and mind says
the Lord. Favor both in Mexico and Ireland will
streamline My will in you as a "great door of utterance"
opens to you there as well as many other key nations of
the world. EPIC IS ABOUT TO ENTER!
** Chad will be in the "Oregon Territory" this weekend
of Sept. 12-14th in Lakeview, OR. at "The Gathering
Place" located at, 3 North F Street - Friday 7pm and
Saturday 7pm. Sunday at 10am. Contact #

Chad Taylor Prophecy over Africa
Given at Victory Christian Fellowship
Fresno, CA.
February 17, 2008
Africa
mighty nation of kings and princes the lord says to Africa,
Rachel weep no more your children are coming back to their
borders and every anointing that was forfeited sold and
stolen on every foreign sea shore will return to your
continent a hundred fold in this lifetime, in this lifetime
and the life to come, for I see Esau coming back to Jacob, I
see the army of Esau and all his lambs and sheep. I see the
wealth of Esau coming back to Jacob, I see the Queen of
Sheba coming unto Solomon, I see the wealth of the wicked
returning, returning to the shores of Africa and you will
rebuild the old waste places and the cities that have been
ashes God will raise up before your eyes, even like a new
Jerusalem, God will raise up a city, God will raise up a
continent, and God will raise up a nation even in a day.
ESAU, JACOB
AND THE SPIRIT OF JOSEPH
It will be
a miracle, it will be a phenomena. It will be a
paradox to some, a miracle to others, and a phenomena to not
just a few, what I do through you oh Africa. For the
army and the wealth of Esau, and the birthright that was
stolen and sold, is coming back to Jacob. I see ships,
ships, ships full of your people, full of generations, full
of mantels, full of anointing, full of crowns coming back
filling your sea shores, filling the horizons as far as the
eye can see. From a thousand years ago until now,
coming back, coming back, and coming back. For what
the devil meant for evil God has always intended for your
good, and the spirit of Joseph shall rest upon you, and you
will live in no pit and no prison no more, and the scepter
of Pharaoh shall be extended to your nation and kings shall
come to the brightness of it�s rising and the army of the
gentiles shall come because the glory of the Lord is arising
and shining upon you.
STOREHOUSES
TO THE NATIONS
And though
gross darkness has covered you and darkness the people My
glory shall arise and shine upon you, for that very text of
scripture was written for such a time as this and you will
not fail in the time of testing and you will pour it back
upon the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. Great charity
will break poverty and Africa will become a storehouse to
the nations. Storehouses filled with new manna and new
bread and other countries in the next decade will come to
Africa to fill their bags and fill their ships. I will
completely turn it around for all things work together for
the good for those called according to My purposes and my
purposes are coming into fullness, fullness, fullness and
I am re-capturing the minds of your youth, and they will
become doctors and they will become genius� in their fields;
physicists and doctors and lawyers and they will
defend you and they will stand for you, and I will raise
them up to be the head and not the tail, as prophets and
kings, as priests. Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
SIGNS AND
WONDERS OVER AFRICA
It starts
in 2008 the stall and the calves have left the gate in 2008,
and you will see a phenomenon in the sky above, you watch
it, you watch it. Those that are observant and those that
are prophetic and even science shall record the mysteries
and the signs and wonders in the heavens above and the earth
beneath. Blood, fire and pillar of smoke shall be seen
over Africa as a sign and a wonder and as a symbol of God�s
promises and his ability to perform them in this hour.
Strange eclipses of the sun and the moon, strange phenomena
in the heavens, I hear the Lord saying a star is born.
And Kings will come to the brightness of it�s rising to
bring their gifts to bring their wealth, to bring their
wisdom.
HOSPITALS,
UNIVERSITIES AND TECHNOLOGICAL BREAKTHROUGHS
I see
medical, medical hospitals and medical colleges rising up
within Africa that will be the envy of the nations and
people will come there to attend those schools and those
universities. Like Oxford was in England, God is
raising up the academic anointing in the nation of Africa
and you will be the envy of England and the envy of America.
Great medical institutions and great academic institutions
shall arise from the ashes of civil war. Where war has
marked those countries, so shall my glory now mark them. I
will remove the pricks that we have kicked against and I
will remove the obstacles and I will make way where there
appeared to be in one day, no way.
Oh my God,
Oh my God and the Lord says I will break up the fountains of
the deep and waters shall be found, and waters shall be
discovered, that will be bottled, that shall become an
industrious witty-invention and will bring wealth to the
people in the Christian communities. Discoveries,
hidden treasures in the darkness, coming to the light to the
faithful few and into the hands of the Joseph anointed. For
I am building an Ark in the continent of Africa and many
nations shall come to find the Glory that resides in you.
THE DAY OF THE WARRIOR HAS COME
by Chad Taylor
I see the prayers of your forefathers rise before Me like smoke.
The bones of your brothers cry out to Me from the ground and I
declare to you a year of remembrance. Look closely at
2008; a year of anniversary and remembrance has come before you.
I will reinstate you in places of authority and honor and the
prophecies of your forefather's shall resonate in this nation.
All that has opposed Me shall now be swept away as those in
darkness see a great Light. "The land of Zabulon, and the land
of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of
the Gentiles; The people which sat in darkness saw great light;
and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is
sprung up..." (Matt 4:15-16).
THE SPIRIT OF CRAZY HORSE
The warrior spirit is still
intact and I will teach your hands to war. You will tear
down ancient strongholds that others have been unwilling and
unable to destroy. You will stand in the gates of
Washington D.C. with a message from Heaven. Those that
have resisted you for 200 years will now declare, "Blessed
is he who comes in the Name of the Lord." The
self-fulfilling prophecy spoken over you years ago, "I
will fight no more forever" will now be reversed
and the will to fight the good fight of faith will be restored.
You will take back coveted land and place it at the feet of your
Father. For I tell you this day I hear the prayers of
Crazy Horse, Sitting Bull and Joseph - apostolic prophetic
declarations that were made that are hanging in the balances of
fulfillment. The day of the warrior has come.
I WILL RESURRECT YOUR HEART AT
WOUNDED KNEE
A resurrection is coming at the
places where the warrior has fallen. These memorial stones
will now be remembered from the highest places of government in
the land. The powers that have incarcerated your destiny will
now be broken releasing the light of a new beginning in your
inherent land. The caricature of history shall be rewritten and
the faces of your Chiefs will be seen in the light of truth. I
will place memorial stones in the house of your President for
those that favor you will be favored by Me. Many will see
it and be glad. For the KNEE is a place of
prayer and devotion - now hear this word of wisdom:
I will restore your place of intercession and prayer and that
which has wounded you and displaced you from your rightful
position of prayer and authority for this nation shall no
longer handicap you any more. The knee that was broken
shall now be repaired says the Lord and you shall stand in the
gap once again.
PROPHECY TO THE WIND BROTHERS
The wind of the prophetic that has lifted you above the
persecution will now lift you once again. The Spirit of
Prophecy is your inheritance and you will now find yourself at
center stage. The curtains of bitterness and hate are now
being rended revealing a glorious light of My Word in you. You
will stand on the mountains of this nation and declare a New
Day. The highest places are yours for the possession.
As Moses on Mount Sinai you will see a mighty deliverance as
millions escape the valley of death into the fields of harvest.
Your day of reckoning and recognition has come My
brothers. Prophecy to the wind and cry out, "These
dry bones will live! These dry bones will live!"
RESERVED FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS
F irst
Nations will now be the first and not the last as the
indictments against them are no more. A graduation from
glory to glory is now in effect and the fires of an awakening on
your reservations is now kindled. For those in
"reservation" understand now it was only a "dress rehearsal"
reserved for an appointed time and like Esther the scepter of
favor and authority will be granted. Watch and see - even
those who say, "Can these things be?", will now stand
in the place as the officer did to Elisha as these words come to
pass, "Behold, you shall see it with your eyes, but
shall not eat thereof..." (2 Kings 7:2).
The famine of hearing God's word in your land is over.
Stand in that place now and proclaim and watch and see as the
reaper is overtaken by the sower.
THE BULL IS NO LONGER SITTING
Those that have sat in darkness
shall now rise in this dawning of a new day. A Bright and
Morning Star shall be seen in 2008 leading them to the place of
their destiny. The tomb of history shall now be
open revealing the exploits that have even to this day remained
hidden. The spirit of exploitation shall be banished from
their borders breaking the cycle of the curse that has found its
way into this present generation. The temptation of wealth
will not spoil the heart of the youth as they reach for higher
ground. As Elijah prayed for rain so shall you stand at
the threshold of drought and dearth and release the heavens.
You shall call upon the Name of Yeshua and the day of famine
shall end. For this is your inheritance and birth right
and in this hour you will see the heart of the father's return
to their children says the Lord. Significant signs shall
surely follow as a People embrace this day that I have declared.
"But this is a people robbed and
spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid
in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivers; for a
spoil, and none saith, Restore. Who among you
will give ear to this? who will hearken and hear for the time to
come? (Isa 42:22-23).
THE PERFECT STORM: FINDING GOD IN
CURRENT CRISIS'S
by Chad Taylor
Recently in a ministry trip to Ketchikan, Alaska I heard
the Lord begin to speak about a "perfect storm" or a perfect
set of circumstances that appear to be disastrous or tragic
but in reality is a chain reaction that is creating
monumental breakthrough and powerful lateral momentum in His
Kingdom. Like a Tsunami that comes in with such force and
then in its wake massive amounts of land are pulled out with
it. These "perfect storms" are a series of divine
circumstances often seen in our headlines and front pages
almost daily as a blueprint for incredible breakthrough and
Kingdom advancement. What may at first appear to be
unexplainable events will prove to be tipping points and
historic progressive breakthroughs that alter the course of
regions, states and nations.
THE NOAH FACTOR AND MASSIVE GLOBAL BREAKTHROUGH
Look at Noah's circumstances for a minute and what
apparently began as a complete disaster became a
"new world" or a complete change in circumstances
and environment. Recently I was in the Portland
area ministering at a Assembly of God church (I
believe it's worth mentioning the church
denomination), as this historic or "perfect
storm" hit interrupting transportation in mass and
is still currently having an incredible impact on
the environment. I was scheduled to leave on
Monday Dec. 3rd but felt led to leave that night as
the storm approached on Dec. 2nd after ministering
at the PM meeting. I believe the entire trip
that night was to receive God's perspective at a
deeper level as sheets of rain and blasting gusts of
wind descended. These disturbing current
events overseas and in the U.S. are catalytic in
nature that will often "violently" as stated in
Mathew 11:12 radically change the landscape removing
obstacles of resistance once and for all. What
would take years and even a life time to change
under these adverse events will happen in seconds,
minutes and hours.
PORTLAND PREPARE FOR A DOWNPOUR OF MY SPIRIT!
As I hit Portland's skyline on Interstate 5 I
literally saw clouds of God's presence over
particular buildings downtown. This was not a
"fog" or haze; I literally saw the physical
manifestation of God's presence over the city as
recent record breaking rain and wind converged on
the city. As I drove the length of Portland
at 11pm Dec. 2nd the Lord stated,
"Portland PREPARE for a downpour of My Spirit!
Even as the wind and rain are hitting you even so
shall My Spirit hit you - all of you..."
There was such a prominence or emphasis on this word
for exactly where the rain and wind were impacting:
the city: her streets, building and waterways.
It was a candid picture of a perfect storm of God's
Holy Spirit coming to radically change the moral,
spiritual and social landscape like a flood.
SEATTLE, PORTLAND AND BOISE: A TRIUNE COUNSEL OF
GOD'S HEART
During our 5 month series of meetings in Stockton,
CA. this year I heard the Lord state this
prophetically in one of our Friday night revival
services, "SEATTLE, PORTLAND AND BOISE:
A TRIUNE COUNSEL OF GOD'S HEART."
I see this playing itself out now as historic
headlining moments unfold targeting these 3 key
cities in the Pacific Northwest. A
"Foursquare" balance of God's heart and Will shall
emerge from the Church in these 3 cities that will
cause a divine equilibrium in the Body of Christ
nationally and even globally. From Sunday
services, spontaneous outbreaks of revival to
divinely orchestrated conferences and rallies; the
heart of God for world harvest and strategic
occupation shall form from these 3 places having a
profound impact on the future of the Church and the
world it is reaching.
Watch and see as other situations occur in these
cities and states that some will label, "bizarre,
strange and uncanny" but they will prove as
circumstances progress, to be a "perfect storm" that
creates massive momentum and historic change setting
the plumb line of God's will for decades to come.
Seattle, Portland and Boise will prove to be a
"threefold cord that is not easily broken" as 2008
unfolds. 2008 will be one of the most defining
and definitive years for these 3 cities and states
repositioning the Church as even current doctrine is
transformed like the land is around them during
these historic events. His Plumb Line will be
laid in the Pacific Northwest.
THE REJECTED WILL BE ACCEPTED AND REINSTATED IN 2008
2008 will go down in history as the YEAR OF THE
PRODIGAL as those that have suffered severe
rejection are now accepted and reinstated by the
Hand of the Lord. It will not be an act of man
even as it was not the act of man that reinstated
the prodigal son to his position or Moses, David, or
Jonah to theirs. The grace of God will prove
itself sufficient in 2008 as significant headlining
reconciliation and restorations takes place.
Newspapers, talk shows and other major media events
will become harbingers of God's intentions like no
other time in 2008 as the "uncomely parts" are
bestowed more honor. Those that have been
disgraced, misunderstood and forgotten will be
suddenly thrust back to the forefront as Joseph was
from his pit and prison. The stone covering
many people's "lion's den" shall be rolled away by
the power's-that-be revealing a greater destiny
inside. Those that have "fellowshipped in His
suffering" shall undoubtedly now walk in
resurrection power.
2008: THE YEAR OF THE INDIGENOUS
Major political and social events shall occur that
publicly and historically place the Native American
people into a place of restoration. An "every
eye shall see" shall unfold in 2008 taking their
cause from the ranks of last making it first.
The anointing of peacemaker shall take center stage
on many international platforms as the Indigenous
people take the lead in major national events.
Certain seats of national authority have been
reserved for them for such a time as this.
Faces that have been hidden from public view will
now "arise and shine" and the caricature of previous
history will be eclipsed by a new breed of apostles,
prophets, evangelist, pastors and teachers revealing
the original foundation that the Lord has
established. City seats and governmental
positions will now be vacant as these noble people
step into their rightful position of leadership.
Church governments will inevitably and unavoidably
have to reach out to the Native American people if
they are ever going to see the fullness of the
Lord's will in their cities and churches; this will
become perfectly clear as the year unfolds.
Media and movies will continue to lead the charge as
the Lord shines His divine spotlight on a chosen
generation of Native American's.
North Dakota, New Mexico, Arizona and Wyoming
will take on a apostolic role of reconciliation and
restoration as a "voice crying in the wilderness"
begins to be heard in America. The true
genuine Joseph anointing will be seen in its full
stature and true character as these people take up
the call and election of the Lord in 2008 and
beyond.
A ASSEMBLY OF GOD'S PRESENCE IS AMASSING
Remember the reference to the Assembly of God
church above? I heard these words as I
ministered in two Assembly of God churches
in the last two months, particularly in the
Portland area as what some are calling "the 40
year" storm because of its intensity and the
first of its kind in 40 years. Not only is
the Lord's presence targeting certain
denominations and churches such as the A.G. but
He is targeting major metropolitan cities in a
terrific historic way. Even as we see
Interstate 5 interrupted between Portland and
Seattle by torrential rain and flooding it is
only a prelude to incredible divine
interruptions as the Lord begins to fill His
temple as He did in Acts chapter 2.
Many mainline denominations that have remained
steadfast in former doctrine and dogma
indifferent to the current move of God will
emerge from the tomb like Lazarus; the grave
clothes of previous experiences no longer
hindering them. Even more contemporary
church movements that have detoured from their
divine course will find new vision and grace to
return to their "first love" and do the "first
works". Like the little boats in Luke
chapter 5 the influx and increase will be so
great it will demand a greater unified front
than ever before in the Body of Christ to
ultimately accomplish His work: "So
they signaled to their partners in the other
boat to come and help them. And they came and
filled both the boats, so that they began to
sink..." (Luke 5:7 NKJV).
Imagine success in the Lord's Kingdom that is so
great that unless you reach out and accept
assistance from others your ministry will sink?!
That is the kind of divine challenges the future
holds as the "perfect storms" of God's will
converge upon the world.
THE DELTA RIVER REVIVAL AND THE PENDING FUTURE OF CALIFORNIA
by Chad Taylor
I heard these words over and over in the
Spirit today. I heard it stated as if it was a historical
event such as, �The Cain Ridge Revival�, or �The Welsh
Revival.� The only difference was that these were
specific historical events and the DELTA RIVER REVIVAL was an
event yet to happen. I heard it again, �THE DELTA RIVER
REVIVAL�. It was an unusual moment as I heard voices from
the future declaring our present, �THE DELTA RIVER REVIVAL...�
The Delta is an example of
an inverted river delta, one of only a few worldwide located in
Central/Northern California. Created by a massive
convergence of the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers, it�s a
vast expanse of tributaries and canals that eventually empty
into the Pacific Ocean through San Francisco and the Golden
Gate. Stockton, CA. acts as a �watchman� of the Delta and
is located on the San Joaquin River on the eastern edge of the
delta and is the seat of the San Joaquin County. The Delta
is also a water and energy source for millions of people and one
of the world�s greatest agricultural resources. It is
commonly referred to as the "fruit basket of the world." Again I
heard, �THE DELTA RIVER REVIVAL��
THE �DELTA REVIVAL
ZONE�: AN EPI-CENTER OF REVIVAL
Stockton, Sacramento, Fresno, Bakersfield, Tracy, Modesto,
Visalia, Merced, Chico, Redding, Yuba City were spokes on this
�wheel� of revival. Many other cities are connected and
related to the cities mentioned above. This �zone� also impacts
the mountain ranges that �guard� this precious resource; Sierra
Nevada to the East, the Tehachapi Mountains to the south, and
the Coast Ranges and San Francisco Bay to the west. I saw
a large red circle covering an aerial view of the state
highlighting this �revival zone�. God has marked this
region to produce some of the most significant signs of revival
in Christian history.
I HEARD AN ANGEL
DECLARE, �THE YOUTH ARE COMING! THE YOUTH ARE COMING!�
An angelic declaration was
being decreed over this region of California. A major
influx of youth were about to receive the injunction of the Lord
into the Army of God. A great commissioning into this
revival was about to take place. Rather than coexisting as
�2nd Class� in this army they were about to receive a
major spiritual promotion and begin to take the forefront
starting in California and then nation wide. A significant
sign of this is about to take place that will receive widespread
attention. The prison door of their present spiritual
position in the church is about to drastically change.
Like Joseph the pit and prison of present circumstance is
suddenly going to be transformed into city wide authority for
revival.
A STOCKPILE OF MIRACLES,
SIGNS AND WONDERS IN STOCKTON
Stockton, CA. during the
historic Gold Rush that dramatically changed the landscape of
California and the world quickly evolved into the SUPPLY LINE
for the miners. Stockton is also the location of the
largest inland seaport in California. In and around Stockton are
thousands of miles of waterways, canals, and rivers that
comprise the California Delta. I heard the Lord say,
�THE STOREHOUSE AND THE STOCKPILE OF MY PROVISION WILL BE IN
STOCKTON SUPPLYING VITAL PROVISION AND ANOINTING FOR MY MODERN
�MINERS� OR REVIVALISTS. I will have a stockpile
of miracles, signs and wonder in Stockton. Many will come
to receive their destinies, creative miracles and anointing for
revival. The stock and value of Stockton is quickly rising
says the Lord I am even now causing this to happen. You
will see this evident in the natural as well as the spirit. Many
will relocate to this city and receive the catalytic anointing
inherent in It to impact the world with the Gospel. A
great pillar of prayer is rising from this city that will be
seen from the uttermost parts of the earth. Watch and see
as this comes to pass before your very eyes.
THREE SIGNIFICANT SIGNS
IN SAN FRANCISCO
I heard the Lord say,
THREE SIGNIFICANT SIGNS IN SAN FRANCISCO WILL BE FOR A WONDER
FOR ALL TO SEE. One will be in the
government or governing body of the city, the second will be a
major shift in the economy and thirdly in the very nature of or
physical substance and environment. One sign shall capture
the attention of the media for 3 days. On the 3rd
day other significant news shall shift the attention of the
nation but it will be for a sign of resurrection and restoration
of My law. One sign will be an alarm that will have a
detouring effect on the economy and passions of the city; it
will impact the moral fabric of the city displacing millions of
dollars in a few short hours of time. Finally the last
sign will be physical in nature and supernatural shifting the
very boundaries of the city restoring the �old paths� signifying
a restoration of the cities destiny and prophetic foundations.
A certain death of a historic or primary figure in San Francisco
will also make headlines and trigger a �changing of the guard�
and a new beginning in the natural and spiritual says the Lord.
CALIFORNIA FIRES ARE
ONLY THE PREREQUISITE FOR SPIRITUAL FIRES
As record breaking fires
have blazed across the state it is only the opening act of a
great spiritual fire to follow. Some of the regions most
impacted by these fires will be �fire zones� of revival and
evangelism. It is also a sign of the burning away of the
old making way for the new. I am restoring the vision that
has been buried and it will be revealed by fire. The wood,
hay and stubble of men�s own efforts will fail but the gold and
silver of revival will prevail in the coming days. The
back draft of My purposes will suddenly hit many and launch
ministries and churches literally overnight. They will
have stellar success as they embrace this new day of My
visitation and let go of the stigma of the past with its rules
and regulations. They will be a tabernacle of My presence
inviting entire cities into My anointing. This will be
highlighted by graphic and poignant miracles that will be so
powerful in nature it will arrest the attention of entire
regions filling open arenas and market places with spontaneous
gatherings lasting for weeks. These occurrences will
spread across the West Coast and the entire nation setting on
fire a course of revival that will defy modern premise and
theology shattering the present wineskin. The days of
Elijah are here!
THE CAPTAIN OF THE SHIP
IS CALIFORNIA AND WHERE IT SAILS THE NATION WILL SURELY FOLLOW
I saw a picture of a
mariner grasping the wheel of his ship braving the storm that
was lashing out against him. Over the heaving waves and
whipping winds he overcome as I heard the shout from above,
�LAND HO! LAND HO!� The ship of grace had found it harbor.
Like Christopher Columbus that sailed the unknown waters of the
Atlantic so is California and her ramification on the nation.
Where her bow breaks spiritual waters breakthrough is sure to
follow. I heard the Lord say, �WATCH THE ECONOMY!
WHAT I DO IN CALIFORNIA WILL SET THE STANDARD FOR THE NATION.
A groundswell of economic breakthrough is beginning. It
will be highlighted by natural events that will at times go
completely unnoticed and often never connected to these events.
Others will be clear and validating signs that I am opening up
the wells of blessing to equip the army that is consequently
being commissioned. Watch for flooding and other signs
related to water and waterways. It is only one landmark on
the road to revival.
"IT'S CRITICAL MASS CALIFORNIA!: CALIFORNIA IN GOD'S
CROSSHAIRS"
Lift up your eyes all around, and see: They all gather
together, they come to you; Your sons shall come from afar, And
your daughters shall be nursed at your side. Then you shall see
and become radiant, And your heart shall swell with joy; Because
the abundance of the sea shall be turned to you, The wealth of
the Gentiles shall come to you." (Isa 60:4-5).
Our recent trip to Central California produced the most
significant fruit in 9 years of ministering in this state. We
experienced first hand what I call, REVIVAL PRAYING. When God's
people find a place of intense prayer mixed with tears that
inevitably leads to repentance from dead works. This is usually
followed by a deep resolve to reach the world that surrounds are
modern parishes and churches and narrow the stark margin between
the church and street. I ministered at various cities and
churches including a group at the Delta College Campus one of
CA. oldest colleges. As I illustrated the "missing links" in
today's church that creates a general atmosphere absent of a
true revival spirit the class began to cry out to God
spontaneously with tears and vehement prayers. It reminded me of
the small class I taught several years ago at the University of
the Nations YWAM base in Kona, HI. What started as a small
strategic missions class suddenly captured the hearts of the
campus as we converged on the "GO" center with revival prayers.
This resulted in many going to the streets of Kona with fire and
passion. Much of that continues today as many continue to carry
the torch into the streets.
Light was created to rule over darkness as the Lord declared
eons ago, "And God made two great lights; the greater light to
rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night..." (Gen
1:16). We need to be where it is dark. You see this dynamic
again, "And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of
the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the
stars for ever and ever." (Dan 12:3). A "shining" or "rising"
always has a starting point. As I heard the words, CRITICAL MASS
CALIFORNIA I saw California as the breaking point or tipping
point of a great "Shining" across the land. Like a submarine
streaking upward toward the waters surface the tip of the
submarine hits and breaks the waves; I see California as the tip
or "ice breaker" as it shines with a effectual fervent glory.
THE PACE CAR OF REVIVAL IS NOW TAKING THE TRACK
California is like the pace car at the Indianapolis 500 it will
begin to set the pace for radical reformation in the church
system. California will be the arrow point that pierces the old
wine skin and makes way for a new dynamic of ministry and
church. You will see a first fruits of this in California as a
army begins to stir herself. As California begins to take her
role as a true forerunner and trail blazer hot spots of revival
will begin to burn more brightly all over the nation. As
California gets free so a nation gets free. The pace of current
breakthrough will quicken this summer and landslide into the
fall and winter months. In November you will see significant
signs following as these things take place. The oil of
repentance and penance will open the floodgates of reparation as
I call California's firstborn back to Me.
Many generational legacies will begin to bear fruit as
California stirs herself once again. The Mexican American will
find themselves in new seats of authority governing and ruling
in righteousness as delegates and ambassadors of the Lord. The
royal Spanish and Mexican bloodline will find redemptive
qualities for California's future and these things will become
very evident in the days and months ahead as the very land is
healed from the reparative prayer of the saints. Meekness and
humility will win over the hearts of the proud and divers and
sundry streams of religious expression will come together as one
to shout the walls if indifference and piety down.
CALIFORNIA IS IN GOD'S CROSSHAIRS (THE DEVIL'S TOO)
Like a nuclear reactor California is now at critical mass. The
crosshairs of God's purpose and plan is upon it. Those that
labored in her vineyards for years will now reap the reward of
the diligent which is the first fruits of revival. The broken
walls of her inheritance that religion and division has eroded
will now be repaired as a new strength fills the hearts of her
children. Dark and dangerous plots of the enemy over Southern
California will come to nothing as the Sword of the Lord and
Gideon fight on the side of the Lord. Natural disaster in
Central California will be extremely lessened to encourage the
hearts of the laborers. Northern California will feel the
refreshing winds of the Lord's presence as he strengthens her
borders and removes the mountains before them. Wells that have
remained shut and forgotten will give way to new rivers of
righteousness and power as He heals the wounds of the land.
Reconciliation will resound as you pray releasing the fire of
God. The spirit of Ichabod will find no place to rest in you as
you passionately pursue His heart for the lost and poor. Your
places of worship will now be called, "cities of refuge" for the
downcast and the rejected as a underground harvest begins to
step from the cave into the light. Faces etched with destiny
will shine with His glory despite tattoos and outward signs of
their persecution. As David they will dance in the streets and
war in the hiways and biways for a people yet to see His glory.
RADICAL is written on their hearts as they pursue His plan with
unshakable resolve.
THE CUP OF THE PROPHET IS OVER CALIFORNIA
"He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall
receive a prophet's reward". (Matt 10:41). Because of
California's ability to accommodate the prophet's of the Lord a
prophet's reward is upon her. A prophetic prosperity will fill
her coffers and overflow her bosom as she gives birth to the
prophetic word sown inside her. Current trends in real estate
and land ownership will set a new standard in California and the
nation as God prepares her borders for His arising in His
people. As in the opening pages of Acts "Land and Houses" will
be released at a blurring rate and the finances from this divine
release and blessing will supply the frontlines of revival
around the world. Great missionary endeavors will come from
California unlike any other time in recorded history as the
gates of prosperity are opened. Pray intercessors Pray! The
battle is intensifying over you and the price will not be light
as you stand in the gap for a generation. The timing has come
into maturation and bells of grace our sounding over your heads,
lift them up for the deliverance of the Lord is here!
THE ANGEL SHOUTED, "THE EAGLES HAVE LANDED! THE EAGLES HAVE
LANDED!"
I heard this crystal clear in the spirit as I received this
prophetic word, THE ANGEL SHOUTED, "THE EAGLES HAVE LANDED! THE
EAGLES HAVE LANDED!" California is a great eagles nest that is
preparing to propagate the Word of the Lord in a very unique and
significant way. I also saw the eagle as the symbol of the
United States and its governing body. California would once
again become the "point man" in 2008 as the elections come to a
head. The prophetic company assembled in California's borders
would become a epicenter of historic prayers predetermining the
future of a nation. A divine hiway is coming to a completion in
California; a landing strip receiving prophetic ministries from
around the world into its borders. California will quickly
become a "prophet's upper room" and the blessings of the Lord
will overtake her. Her land will flourish, her banks will
overflow as in times of harvest in Israel's crossing the Jordan.
The distinct sounds of worship will be heard in her cities. San
Francisco will not be just sounding brass or clanging symbols
but rather a distinct call to battle will be sounded out
rallying the army into action. As Elisha was in Dothan as he
prayed, "Open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the
eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was
full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha." "And he
answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they
that be with them." (2 Kings 6:16). For a time of reckoning and
reconciliation is upon you and you will see the Lord in the land
of the living.
THE LORD SAID, "I AM LEAVING MY HEART IN SAN FRANCISCO
As the old song pays tribute, "I left my heart in San
Francisco", I heard the Lord say, "I am leaving MY HEART in San
Francisco." A redefining moment is upon you O great city. As you
once burned into the night and ships from afar saw your demise
now watch and see as I arise and shine declaring a new day of
liberty. Ships from afar shall once again see the night sky
burning bright but now it will be the fires of My spirit as a
lamp to your feet and a light to your path. I will now light the
torches of My passion and purpose and like an Olympic runner
your streets will see it and be glad. I say something unique in
the months of June, July and August. For those months shall be
as three days to Me says the Lord and I will open the graves of
your destiny and call Lazarus forth. The stone of judgment shall
be rolled away and you shall stand in victory as the reproach of
your youth is remembered no more. An army of destitute and
despised will stand in My glory with fire in their eyes as the
Spirit of the Lord is poured out without measure. That which has
been your greatest shame shall now become your greatest glory as
I testify My grace in you. Watch and see, even from the Golden
Gate my glory will be seen - many will stop to behold a sign and
a wonder and lift up their eyes to Me for this purpose will it
be. I am even now removing those that oppose and a great turning
will transpire as the seats of authority are occupied by those
that pray. Righteousness will prevail and the gates of hell will
not as a new day is declared in you many will see it and
rejoice. I am leaving My heart in San Francisco says the Lord, I
am leaving My heart in you. What was once stone is now flesh and
will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord.

THE LIBERTY BELL WILL RING AGAIN AND THE ANGEL OF FREEDOM
SAID, "LET FREEDOM REIGN!"
 On
Sunday April 15th, 2007 I found myself at a crucial prophetic
crossroads. In light of recent events this week as the
Supreme Court's Decision to Uphold Partial Birth Abortion Ban my
encounter at this important monument to the Civil Rights
movement and American history only cemented this experience.
I was a speaker at a conference in the Birmingham, AL. area but
what unfolded Sunday morning was unscheduled and divinely
orchestrated. Literally the night before my commitment to
speak at another local church was changed and I found
myself awakened by the Lord Sunday morning and then was led to
drive toward downtown Birmingham at approximately 10:00 am.
I was seeking directions to another part of the city and pulled
off a random exit and asked directions from a man who was
exiting the gas station. I had noticed a city marker that
indicated that the "Civil Rights Institute" and museum was
nearby. I inquired about that as well and the African
American man said without hesitation, "Follow me..."
It was very cold and the rain was whipping by as unusual weather
patterns were also impacting the East Coast at the same time.
The downtown area was nearly empty considering it was an early
Sunday morning in the deep south. After a few blocks
the stranger led me to the doors of large building that was the
Civil Rights Institute. It was closed to the public.
I got out of my vehicle and another African American man was
walking toward me. I suddenly had the realization that
Martin Luther King Jr. had once preached here and other
historical landmarks became clear to me as I looked around at
the various markers and plaques. I asked the man, "Where
is the church that Martin Luther King Jr. preached at?" He
pointed behind me, "Right there!" A few feet from where I
parked was 16th Street Baptist Church which become the epicenter
of civil right history and tragedy when a bomb exploded
September 15th, 1963 claiming the lives of four young girls.
This was also the breaking point which caused international
attention to the civil rights stand and brought about historic
change.
As I climbed the old steps to the main entrance it was if I had
stepped back in time 50 years ago as this nation struggled
deeply for its civil and morale bearings and seemed to falter.
By this time I could hear the sound of the choir as they, "Marching
to Zion" and I was welcomed warmly by the ushers as they
handed me the bulletin - it read, "TODAY WE CELEBRATE THE 134th
YEAR OF THE SIXTEENTH STREET BAPTIST CHURCH" The very day
that the Lord led me to this historic precipice was its 134th
anniversary of its existence. 1873 was also marked by the
Stock Market crash which was the beginning of the "great
depression". Sixteenth Street Baptist Church was also the
first African American church organized in Birmingham, AL.
As I sat there transfixed by the events the Lord spoke into my
spirit,
"THE LIBERTY BELL IS RINGING AGAIN!"
I heard this over and over as I sat near the back of the
building in an old wooden pew, "THE LIBERTY BELL IS RINGING
AGAIN!" I was also suddenly aware a massive angelic
presence over this exact building I knew immediately it was the
Angel of Freedom and it was declaring as the choir sang, "LET
FREEDOM REIGN!"
I was still reeling from these events as I rose to exit.
As I went down the steep steps of the church again I asked a
Police Officer that was now parked across the street, again an
African American, where the historic marches had occurred as the
water cannons pummeled the people and the police dogs were seen
on television attacking the marchers, he said it was on 6th Ave.
which was exactly where I was standing on 16th Street and 6th
Ave. I got into my truck because of the cold and began
driving the route of the infamous march my windows down.
What happened next still echoes in my spirit... I heard
clearly from a distance A LARGE BELL RINGING. I turned
toward it and tried to locate it again as it rang but from a
different direction. I looked all around trying to find
the origins of the sound and again it rang clearly but from a
different direction. I suddenly realized I was hearing an
audible supernatural sound as the Lord said again,
"THE LIBERTY BELL IS RINGING AGAIN!"
It was coming from all around me and had no particular rhythm it
just rang; deep and clear.
 As
I continued to drive through the city I saw the fires of revival
and revolution that had once burned in this city. It was
not only natural water cannons that pummeled the people that
marched for freedom in Birmingham, Alabama it was also a
religious flood that quenched the fires of revival. As I
walked through the park across from 16th Street Baptist church
with its life size memorial of Martin Luther King Jr. the Lord
said, "PROPHECY TO THE FIRE OF REVIVAL TO SPRING UP ONCE
AGAIN!". I saw as it was coals still burning right under
the surface. A plaque in the park was etched with two
words, "RECONCILIATION and REVOLUTION" I began to
prophesy RECONCILIATION, REVOLUTION and REVIVAL fires to begin
to burn brightly over America again securing liberty and justice
for ALL from the streets of Birmingham, AL on the very same
route the masses marched over 40 years ago in the shadow of the
16th Street Baptist Church. THE LIBERTY BELL IS RINGING
OVER AMERICA AGAIN.
"THE COURT OF GOD'S GRACE IS NOW IN SESSION"
by
Chad Taylor
Today I heard that word as if it was audible,
"THE COURTS OF GOD'S GRACE ARE NOW IN SESSION". I saw an
unfolding vision of real life courtroom and the jury was entering filing
into their seats. There was a large crowd in the main audience and
I knew right away by the innumerable television cameras that this was
being viewed around the world. I then saw who I knew to be Jesus
come into the room and He stated,
"I am ready to bring evidence and substance to prove My people's
faith..." Another voice who I knew to be the Father's say,
"The court is now Yours to present Your case." I was immediately
drawn to the scripture in Matthew 11 as the Lord revealed to me the
first session of God's court of grace 2000 years ago, "And when John had
heard in prison about the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples
and said to Him, "Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?"
Jesus answered and said to them, "Go and tell John the things
which you hear and see: The blind see and the lame walk; the
lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear; the dead are raised up and the
poor have the gospel preached to them. (Matt 11:2-6).
As the jury of that age was assembled for the first time Jesus our
advocate and propitiation presented His overwhelming evidence proving
that His grace WAS sufficient. Then I heard the voice of the Lord
say again, "Court is now in session again and I
will prove like no other time in history that My grace is sufficient.
I will present evidence and substance that My peoples faith is not in
vain."
SIGNS, WONDERS AND MIRACLES ARE HIS EVIDENCE IN THIS PRESENT COURT OF
GRACE
Signs, wonders, miracles and the great commissioning to preach the
gospel with favor unparalleled in human history is the great evidence in
this Court of Grace. I heard the Lord say to the Jury of
unbelievers, agnostics, Muslims, and every sort of doubter and critic,
�Watch and see I will do a work before you that you would not believe
even if it were told you.�
As this heavenly drama unfolded before me I noticed again the television
cameras and high tech video recorders. I heard the Lord say to me
�My miracles will be seen in High Definition and nobody will be
able to gainsay or rebuke them��
The Lord was making His work more visible than ever before in recorded
history. It would be emblazoned on every network and television
channel around the world and feature films and secular media would
become our greatest source of visibility as they recorded the great
exploits of God�s people. Like Nebuchadnezzar many of the most
visible personalities in movies and media would openly and publicly
confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. I heard the Lord say, �Watch
Donald Trump for as a child he encountered Me, I am going to remind him
of His greatest legacy in the days to come, he is only one of many that
I will shine the spotlight of My grace on says the Lord.�
THE DAYS OF HEBREWS 11 HAVE OFFICIALLY BEGUN
�Now faith is the substance of things hoped for,
the evidence of things not seen.� (Heb 11:1) The substance and
evidence of all that My church has contended for is beginning to make
itself manifest. You will see the greater works and the exploits
that you have read about for generations. The engine that will
move this vehicle of greater works is GRACE and it will enable you to do
in 1 year what otherwise would have taken 10. The days of leaping
and jumping have come again and the great public display of miracle
working power is upon you. It will not only be in stadiums and set
timed events but rather in the �Gate Beautiful� and other very visible
and public places. Many that have strived and walked faithfully
for years in seeming obscurity will suddenly step into the great
spotlight of this grace and find themselves in the maelstrom of
miracles. This what they meant when they said, �nameless and
faceless� but these will suddenly have a name and have a face and will
magnify My name in a way that rivals those in Hebrews 11. It will
captivate millions as they see these things displayed on story high TV
screen in downtown New York City and on monitors in Las Vegas Casinos.
The world will SEE My glory!
2007 THE OPENING BELL FOR THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH
Now is the time to contend and reach for the
greater works. Like Paul you must believe for the greater things
 and
begin to strive for that upward call like you have never done before.
As the bar is raised I will show Myself strong on My people�s behalf
opening the doors of the Supreme Court and the Whitehouse as never
before. I say watch and see for there are two more seats if you
will believe! I said watch and see � there are TWO more seats if
you will only believe! Grace will tip the scales of justice and
she will submit to My word. A mass exodus from the abortion
clinics will occur as you face the future with My grace. I then
saw a vision as it were boarded up buildings and �CLOSED FOR BUSINESS�
signs on these buildings in every state and city.
I knew that these were abortion clinics and that the Lord had wielded
His gavel of grace across this land and a new day had dawned.
The Lord then said, �These next seven years
starting in 2007 will be My appointed days of plenty. I will undo
the heavy burdens of laws and legislation that have been put upon you
and this will mark the days of the greater works. I will stall the
plans of the enemy in this country and the liberty to do My work will be
plumb line before you. For all that you have endured America is
for the defense of the Gospel. I said it is for the defense of the
Gospel. Awake O righteous church for the day of you divine
deliverance has come. And the court of My grace is now in session!

"THROW YOUR NETS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF REALITY � YOU�RE ABOUT TO QUANTUM
LEAP"
"Look among the nations and watch � Be utterly astounded! For I
will work a work in your days which you would not believe, though it
were told you. (Habakkuk 1:5)
As I began to receive this word from the Lord it started with this
exhortation regarding the statement above, �throw your nets on the
other side of reality�, making reference to the disciples in John
21:5-6 when Jesus
said to them,
�Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some..."
I suddenly realized that it was nothing to do with the boat or what part
of the body of water that they were fishing in, what Jesus was
pinpointing here was their PERCEPTION and UNDERSTANDING of who He was at
that moment in time was incomplete. As they sat adrift in the boat
Jesus to them was powerless and dead � suddenly in a twinkling of an eye
He showed Himself able to do ALL THINGS for them RIGHT NOW as John the
revelator exclaimed, �It is the Lord!� The greatest breakthroughs
that are about to happen is our perceptions of Jesus and who He is and
what He is capable of doing in us. The lifeless waters of
our previous understanding that produced no fruit and left us with empty
nets is suddenly going to be transformed as our understanding of His
heart changes and �we all with open face beholding as in a glass
the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to
glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord�� (2 Cor 3:18)
ALL NATIONS SHALL CALL HIM BLESSED
David declared, �His name shall endure for ever: his name shall be
continued as long as the sun: and men shall be blessed in him: all
nations shall call him blessed.� (Ps 72:17).
This will be one of the greatest phenomena�s that we will experience as
a corporate church in this era of history - the unprecedented desire and
ability to reach the world for Jesus. His promise in Matthew 24:14
which has been impossible to accomplish within the confines of any one
generation will be suddenly within reach of all even at one time; �And
this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a
witness to all the nations�. �ALL THE NATIONS� will not
be such an overwhelming task as even the smallest grassroots ministry
without the previously required experience will have within their means
to reach �all the nations� in a moment of time as their understanding of
His promises are revealed. What has been clearly and acceptably
impossible before will literally in a twinkling of an eye be
astonishingly possible and literal. A quantum leap means,
�any sudden and significant change, advance, or increase�. Sudden
and significant change, advance and increase will define this generation
as they come into the fullness of Christ and His promises.
BACK TO THE FUTURE
AND THE KEYS TO THE PAST AND PRESENT
I saw as it was an hour glass and instead of it going vertical or up and
down, it was horizontal or to the left and right. Rather than the
sand emptying into the bottom of the glass indicating the end of
something instead both sides were running together as the sand heaped up
in the middle pouring out on all sides. Horizontal also refers to or
means �horizon� or the future. I heard the Lord say, �This is the
appointed time that THE THINGS THAT I HAVE PROMISED IN THE PAST WILL NOW
BECOME YOUR FUTURE! Both are suddenly colliding with one
another as that which I have promised you for generations are now coming
to pass. Promises hitherto will now be your future as your future
is defined by the fulfillment of that which I have already promised.
I will take you BACK TO YOUR FUTURE SAYS THE LORD! These are the
keys that I gave to Peter. This is the rock of revealed truth that
My church is built on. Now I will reveal the bedrock of that Truth
to a single generation as they fulfill My great commission.
THE WAR IN HOLLYWOOD IS ONLY A BATTLE FOR YOUR PERCEPTION
I heard the Lord say that statement with such clarity, �The war in
Hollywood is only a battle for your perception�. The enemy�s only
effective weapon is to rule our perception and understanding of who
Christ is and who we are in the world for Him. As that changes
whether for the good or bad it changes the world that is around us
instantly. As the centurion�s perception in Matthew 27 and those
around him changed and what they saw Jesus to be was altered it also
SUDDENLY AND WITH GREAT FORCE CHANGED THE WORLD AROUND THEM!
�Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus,
saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared
greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God!� (Matt
27:54). Both of these events were hinged upon the other; the world
changing suddenly with great force and their perception of who Jesus was
changing with the same intensity. As Jesus changes our perception
of who He is and what He intends to do through us the world inevitably
will radically change around us not only in the spiritual but the
natural as well. Earthquakes of revelation and perception will
rend the veils of limited understanding and those utterly incapable of
reaching the word for Jesus will in a moment of time rise up to move
mountains and nations in Jesus name. No longer will the results be
determined by their own abilities or perceptions but by the awesome
promises of the Lord, �All kings shall fall down before him: all nations
shall serve him�� (Ps 72:11).
NOW IS THE TIME TO FULFILL YOUR DESTINIES AND UNLOCK THE HIDDEN
TREASURES WITHIN
�For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined
in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in
the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels,
that the Excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.� (2
Cor 4:6-7).
I saw the hand of the Lord as if He was reaching into a honeycomb of
some kind and pulling out handfuls of precious honey. Then I heard
Him say, �I am drawing out the hidden treasures of My glory that I
placed in the hearts of My people before time as you know it in a
predestined place of My will. David saw this when he wrote, �Your
eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfected; and in thy book all my
members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet
there was none of them. How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O
God! how great is the sum of them!� (Ps 139:16-17). Those
that currently see themselves as a �lesser of the sum� and their
destines �without form� will come into a clarity of their future and
what I have called them to be and do. They will be a Lazarus that rises
up from the grave of previous and even present understanding and come
into a world changed by their perception of Me. Those that now
perceive themselves as the lesser will suddenly see the �sum� of My
thoughts toward them and they will do exploits. Literally the
earth will move before them changing, metamorphosing as my sons and
daughters are made manifest. The invisible power that changes
trends and perceptions will now give way to a greater day as My children
cry, �Abba Father�. The darkness of our own understanding is being
shattered by the Light of His glorious appearing in us now � then we
will turn our faces to the world as Moses did when he came down the
mountain and they will see the �light of the knowledge of the
glory of God� in us and the world will be changed. This
truly is the day of visitation and the day that you will be able to say
with all boldness, �IT IS FINISHED!�

"A WORD TO THE
DESPERATE, DERAILED, AND DAUNTED --THIS IS YOUR
YEAR!"
YOUR CAVE IS BECOMING YOUR CROWNING
ACHIEVEMENT!
The Lord says, "All that you have endured--the
misunderstanding and the discouragement, even at
times to the point of utter despair, will only prove
to be your crowning achievement in My Kingdom. For
those that suffer with Me will inevitably reign with
Me. Your Cave of Adullam is now becoming your cave
of absolution as I compel you forward into every
good work. The stones that have sealed you in will
now pave the way into your future as you ride this
next wave of breakthrough!"
CLEAR AND PRESENT BREAKTHROUGH--IT'S NOT
FICTION, IT'S FACT!
I heard the words:
"CLEAR AND PRESENT BREAKTHROUGH" exclaimed
over 2007. This is the precedent that the Lord is
setting--a benchmark of breakthrough in 2007 that
like Joshua and Israel, will launch the Body of
Christ into an unparalleled spiritual position to
heal and take back the land.
I saw the "writing on the wall" changing from
DELIVERANCE to POSSESSING as those delivered from
every dreadful thing were
now possessing and taking back the inheritance of
their forefathers. Many who are related to
the first pioneers and missionaries that set foot on
American soil, will
now reap the inheritance reserved
for such a time as this. This is not fiction, it's
fact! The absolutes of God's promises are
overtaking us.
2007: THE YEAR OF UNLEAVENED VISION AND
DREAMS
"Therefore purge out the old leaven, that
you may be a new lump, since you truly are
unleavened..." (1 Corinthians 5:7).
The Lord says, "I am removing the old and the
expired that has clogged the arteries of fresh
vision and dynamic dreams.
My people will see a panoramic setting of their
future rather than a black and white backdrop of
previous experiences.
This is the year of unleavened vision unhindered
from the power of our past as the gravity of our
future moves us forward at record breaking speed."
The Lord says, "Mark the calendar:
March will set a new standard not
only in the spiritual, but the natural.
April will bring new rain as it
sets in motion the birthing of great things.
May will be the starting point as
many begin to launch out in different directions.
June will be a month of Jubilee as
finances are poured out through open windows of
Heaven. All that you have sown will surely begin to
come back to you in June.
July will be a month of fire. You
will see it in the headlines and in the spirit.
Don't be persuaded by natural events; only be
confident that they are a confirmation of things to
come.
August will be a month of testing
to prove the unleavened vision that you have
received; make it through this month, and
September will surely result in great
harvest.
October will bring persecution, but
to those that are tried will receive a crown of
life. Hold fast to that which I have shown you."
THE BENCHWARMERS AND SIDELINERS ARE ABOUT TO
TAKE CENTER STAGE!
The first will be last as God's promises are
performed. God says, "Those that have received no
recognition or applause will now be exalted in this
their due time. Not to seats of man's admiration,
but to the courts of
God's favor. It will set them before
authorities and magistrates and even judges as they
speak My word in this season of restitution. They
will be My Esthers and Daniels turning back the tide
of unrighteousness resulting in breakthrough where
there was inevitable disaster pending."
"Like Elijah, they will pray and the Heavens will be
opened or the Heavens will be closed. New doors of
ministry will be revealed to so many as housewives,
factory workers, and retirees will have the unction
for full-time ministry. They will crisscross the
nations with a message of fulfillment and hope
setting back the Day of Judgment for many as they
preach Good News to the poor."
This is the year of the desperate, derailed, and
daunted--He has not forgotten and will now outdo
your wildest expectations!

"THE STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS AND THE BILLOWING CLOUDS OF HIS
PRESENCE"
"I saw the doors of the White House
and the Congress opening to certain prophetic ministries as a precedent
of unity between Church and State begins in 2007." ( As featured on the
Elijah List)
The State of Our Union
On January 23rd, 2007, President Bush gave his "State of
the Union Address" as required by the Constitution of the United States,
which states: "(The President) shall from time to time give to Congress
information of the State of the Union and recommend to their
Consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient."
(Article II, Section 3). George Washington gave the first address
January 8th, 1790 in New York City.
As I watched this event unfold Tuesday night, I was
first struck with the magnitude of the title: "The State of the Union"
and its far reaching implications that went beyond the hallowed
corridors of American history. God was asking us on this 23rd day, of
January 2007, "What is your State of Union?"
For the first time, I suddenly saw the amplitude of the "State of our
Union or Unity" as His Body and how important it is to God. What
highlighted this was the "State of our Union," as our President stood
before a historic House of Representatives and Congress. This governing
body could not have been more widely divided as this address was being
made, and this cemented division is clearly illustrated in the general
spirit of American's everywhere as our "state of union" is tested like
never before.
I saw the paradox as well. This division and
Divine testing of our "state of union or unity" was not confined to a
political paradigm; it was for the Church as well. God is asking all of
us in this hour, "What is your state of union? Are you working toward My
heart and a common goal, or is it divided and becoming a House that
cannot stand?"
A Vision of Billowing Clouds
At a certain point in the President's State of the Union
address as he began to comment about Africa and her plight, I was
suddenly arrested by the Spirit and a vision opened up to me.
I saw BILLOWING CLOUDS OF HIS PRESENCE that were
literally stories high. They filled the scope of my spiritual eyes and
were like nothing that I had ever seen. They appeared to me as clouds
moving like giant waves filling every vacant space with their presence.
As I saw this vision unfold, I heard the voice of the Lord from the
billows, "MY TRAIN FILLS THE TEMPLE!" Then I was clearly aware that
these billows were not clouds, but they were the garments and presence
of the Lord God Almighty Himself.
Then from the billowing train of the Lord, I heard the voice of
President Bush as he declared this and that about Africa, and then I
heard the Voice of the Lord again, as if the two voices were one, "WHOM
SHALL I SEND, AND WHO WILL GO FOR US?" I realized at that very moment,
that this was a great commission to the Church in this hour, and it
required an unshakable State of Union like never before, as the Church
was commissioned by God AND by our President as well. I then heard an
angel declare, "LOOK! THE KING AND HIS Kingdom ARE COMMISSIONED!"
I suddenly saw in the billows of His presence, certain ministries and
their strategic nature to bring about this Divine State of Union. I saw
prophetic ministries and the far-reaching ramifications of their labor.
I saw them as a razor-knife cutting away the grave clothes of division
from the Body that kept it from the State of Union which God was
declaring.
I then heard the President's voice (in the Spirit) begin
to declare his blessings over these prophetic ministries, as I heard the
President speak their names and he nodded in their direction. I heard
many names and ministries at this time that were divine catalysts of
God's State of the Union, as the Church moved toward this Great
Commission. I saw the doors of the White House and the Congress opening
to certain prophetic ministries as a precedent of unity between Church
and State begins in 2007 unlike any other political or spiritual era
before it.
I also observed some other ministries who
had great presidential and governmental favor begin to fade from the
picture. I knew by the Spirit that their time of favor and prominence
had come to an end as this great State of the Union unfolded. It was
critical even beyond my present understanding that these other
ministries make way for the new.
I saw "GOD TV" as a forerunner to this State of the Union as a great
golden gate was opened between our continents, and I heard the Lord say,
"ONCE THERE WAS A REVOLUTION BETWEEN THESE COUNTRIES, NOW THERE SHALL BE
ANOTHER, BUT IT WILL BE FOR THEIR GREATER GOOD, NOT EVIL!" I knew by the
Spirit that the Lord spoke of Great Britain and The United States. This
great billowing train of His presence began to fill their houses of
political and spiritual representation as well. A great spiritual
revolution and revival had begun...
WATCHMEN--WATCH THE WEST COAST!
I then heard something very unnerving from the Clouds of His presence. I
heard the Lord say, "BEWARE OF ASSASSINATIONS AND MASS ATTACKS. FOR THE
ENEMY DESIRES TO TAKE THE CITY AS ONE MAN." I was reminded then of what
the Lord had declared to Gideon when he faced the great army of
Midianites, "And the LORD said unto him, Surely I will be with thee, and
thou shalt smite the Midianites as one man..." (Judges 6:16).
I knew though that this was for evil and not for good in the context the
Lord was showing me. The enemy of this State of Union would and is now
concocting elaborate schemes to thwart this Union and that they would
try to take down entire cities. I heard the Lord say at this time in the
vision, "WATCH THE WEST COAST, WATCHMEN WATCH THE WEST COAST! WATCHMEN
WATCH THE WEST COAST!" I knew too, that we had to pray IN UNITY as never
before to stop the flood of the enemies attacks. A series of Scriptures
leapt to my heart from the Lord as a first line of defense when the Lord
said, "I WILL RAISE UP A GREATER STANDARD IN THIS HOUR! I WILL RAISE UP
A GREATER STANDARD!"
"When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall
lift up a standard against him" (Isaiah 59:19).
Even in
moments when it seems irrevocable, the Lord will raise up a supernatural
standard. Even in this current political maelstrom, a righteous standard
shall prevail and everyone shall see it at once.
"Go through, go through the gates; prepare ye the way of the people;
cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a standard
for the people." (Isaiah 62:10)
"Declare ye among the nations, and publish, and set up a
standard..." (Jeremiah 50:2). A greater State of Union will prevail for
the first time in 300 years between Great Britain and the United States.
Crisis will solidify this Union like never before.
"In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and
close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will
build it as in the days of old..." (Amos 9:11).
I heard the Lord say, "This is your
strategic prayer as in Amos 9:11: CLOSE UP THE BREACHES! CLOSE UP THE
BREACHES!'"
Let us together PRAY THIS:
'CLOSE UP THE BREACHES, CLOSE UP THE BREACHES!'"

Taylor (many of whose words have been posted on the ELIJAH LIST), is
"THE REAL GENUINE ARTICLE." I've been with him on the streets of
Portland, when he would say, "Stop the car" so he could speak words of
kindness to a person. I've been with him in McDonalds when his goal was
more to find someone to share Christ with than eat his own lunch. Chad
is not talk--He's action! Chad is a forerunner and an example to the
entire Body of Christ. Please spread his testimony to all who are
