PREPARE

PREPARE - THE PROPHETIC WORD FOR NOW!

I saw a bright white angel from heaven that was shinning, glowing from the presence of God and the angel of the Lord spoke one word, “ Prepare .”

On February 15, 2006 I awoke in the middle of the night and I was sensing the over-whelming presence of the Lord. Just one word came from the Angel of the Lord our God, "PREPARE." My heart was overwhelmed. What could this be? Prepare for what? How do I prepare? As the days passed, I continued to see things that would come upon the earth, if man did not repent of his ways. In Genesis 1:4 “And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.” We are living in the hour that God is going to divide the light from the darkness. God is speaking to us to prepare and it's getting louder and louder to us. These are three different prophetic visitations one from myself, Cristy Martin. I was visited by an angel of the Lord in the night. Diane Mark, who had a dream in the night and Tamera Cornwall who had an open vision.

Next I will take you to July 15, 2006 my close friend Diane Mark had a divine dream that I believe is to the remnant of God, the Bride of Christ. She was walking along and suddenly she had an open vision it is like a big movie screen opened up in front of her. She saw a huge stonewall, maybe ten feet wide by ten feet in height. She said it looked like it was made out of granite. She felt the nudging of God to look closer. As she looked closer, she saw on the top of the huge stone was engraved the name, “Peter.” She also saw a swirling whirlwind in the center of the stone. It appeared like a yellow-amber color, yet closer to the inside it was very white. She asked me what I thought it meant. Well the first scripture that came to mind was what Jesus spoke in Matthew 16: 18 “That thou are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail.” I believe God was making a strong declaration that He will build His church and the time is now!

We dug deeper into the meaning of what we saw and this is what we found. These are interpretations from scriptures found in the bible. Whirlwind is a symbol type of hurricane, sweeping power, unable to resist . Isaiah 17:13 & Proverbs 1:27 Amber is the symbol of the Presence and Glory of God in judgment. Ezekiel 1:4, 27 & 8:2 White is the symbol of Purity, righteousness, and holiness . Rev. 6: 2; 7:9 & 19:8& 9 Rock : A symbol of hiding in Christ. Ex 33:18-23; Job 24-25; Ps 31:3; 95:1 The biblical meaning of “wall,” is: protection, separation, and security, righteous or evil. Isa 26:1; 60:18; 2:15; 5:5; 49;16 Now to Simon Peter, his name means, “rock.” Also how about what Peter wrote in Peter 1 & 2 . The theme was victory in suffering and the judgment of God on sin.

Now it is time to give you just a part of a vision that Tamera Cornwall, another very close friend of mine had on June 16th 2006. This was a continuation to a vision God had given her years ago regarding the church in the last days. She saw God's people asleep in a huge park full of green grass. She saw two different groups of people rising from their slumber. One group rising got on their knees and began to worship God . The other group rose up with the attitude, “I can do this for the Lord. I will battle for the Lord.” As they arose they were clothed and dressed for battle. But as they arose for battle they were torn asunder by the sword of the Lord. She felt this was a strong word for the remnants of God to stay on their knees in worship and wait for the word of the Lord before they arise. Then arise in God in His might and not in our own strength .

Let us then “Prepare” for what is soon coming on the earth. How do we prepare? Rock : A symbol of hiding in Christ. It's time to hide ourselves in Christ. Let us stay on our knees and worship & pray, “That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto us the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him” Jesus Christ gave his life to have His body, “the fullness of Him that filleth all in all.” (Ephesians 1:17 & 22, 23)

I Corinthians 3:10--16"I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is JESUS CHRIST. Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; Every man's work of what sort it is. If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire. Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? "

IT'S TIME TO PREPARE.

Visitation: Cristy Martin & Dream: Diane Mark & Vision: Tamera Cornwall

A NEW LEADER & A NEW KING SAUL

Recently I asked a friend if the Lord had spoken to them about who the new president would be and they said, “The Lord spoke to me about King Saul and I don't know what that means.” The day after the election my friend Anita Heymans told me she asked the Lord, “Why, why was this man voted into power? Lord we prayed and believed. What happened?” Then the Lord told her, “The people of Israel wanted a King and so I gave them a king, King Saul.”

Many believers in Jesus Christ are asking why this has happened to our nation. Why do we have a new president in 2009 that has voted in support of not protecting an unborn child and supports homosexual's right to marriage and by his voting past has shown great opposition towards the word of God and His ways? Some people act like God created Adam & Adam or Eve & Eve; but God created Adam and Eve. Others act like life is there with the option to kill at their inconvenience, yet God's word tells us He came to give us LIFE and LIFE more abundantly. Also God told man to be fruitful and to multiply - not to be fruitless and to subtract. (Click here to see the new president's voting record.)

1 Sam 8:5-9

Give us a king to judge us like all the other nations have."

6 Samuel was displeased with their request and went to the Lord for guidance. 7 "Do everything they say to you," the Lord replied, "for it is ME they are rejecting, not you."

Unfortunately the people of the USA have asked for a man to lead them, not the principles that line up with the word of God. Unfortunately that includes many people, even many church leaders that say they love God, but the supported one who opposes God's word. 1 Sam 9:2 Saul was the most handsome man in Israel —head and shoulders taller than anyone else in the land.

1 Sam 8:5-9

Give us a king to judge us like all the other nations have."

6 Samuel was displeased with their request and went to the Lord for guidance. 7 "Do everything they say to you," the Lord replied, "for it is me they are rejecting, not you. They don't want me to be their king any longer. 8 Ever since I brought them from Egypt they have continually abandoned me and followed other gods. And now they are giving you the same treatment. 9 Do as they ask, but solemnly warn them about the way a king will reign over them."

1 Sam 9:2

Saul was the most handsome man in Israel —head and shoulders taller than anyone else in the land.

After King Saul had won several battles, then Samuel confronted King Saul disobedience to God's word.

1 Sam 9:22, 23

Obedience is better than sacrifice,and submission is better than offering the fat of rams.23 Rebellion is as sinful as witchcraft,and stubbornness as bad as worshiping idols.

Oh, but don't lose hope for we have a wonderful God who is faithful to His faithful ones.

Ps 112:4-8

4 Light shines in the darkness for the godly. They are generous, compassionate, and righteous. 5 Good comes to those who lend money generously and conduct their business fairly. 6 Such people will not be overcome by evil. Those who are righteous will be long remembered. 7 They do not fear bad news ; they confidently trust the Lord to care for them. 8 They are confident and fearless and can face their foes triumphantly.

Isa 9:2

2 The people who walk in darkness will see a great light. For those who live in a land of deep darkness, a light will shine.

John 8:12

12 Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, "I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won't have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life."

The word of God tells us to pray for our leaders, those who have authority over us. How do we do that? We pray the word of God and we pray in the Spirit, for the Spirit of God gives us understanding; wisdom from the heart of God. I have great hope that very soon we will see the glory of God come to the earth unlike anything that has ever been seen by man before and we will see a great harvest of souls unlike anything we have ever seen before. God will have His light in the darkness and He will reap the souls. His Son Jesus shed His blood for those souls! AMEN!

HAVE WE BEEN DECIEVED BY

THE MESSAGE, THE GOSPEL OF THE LOVE OF MONEY?

Would the true gospel of Jesus Christ please stand up. Which do you today hear more about on Christian Televsion? How Jesus wants to bless us with financial blessings or do you hear we need to have a great rich relationship with God?

Luke 12:21

21 "Yes, a person is a fool to store up earthly wealth but not have a rich relationship with God."

Heb 13:5

5 Don't be obsessed with getting more material things. Be relaxed with what you have. Since God assured us, "I'll never let you down, never walk off and leave you,"

We must be leery of teachings that would make our heart want to lust for more things, instead of having our heart long to know the Great and Living God in a deeper and intimate way.

Matt 6:19-21

Don't store treasures for yourselves here on earth where moths and rust will destroy them and thieves can break in and steal them. 20 But store your treasures in heaven where they cannot be destroyed by moths or rust and where thieves cannot break in and steal them. 21 Your heart will be where your treasure is.

How are we ministers of the gospel of Jesus Christ and how are shepards (pastors) of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to conduct ourselves with God's people and relationship with money and with God?

1 Tim 3:2-7

2 But there are preconditions: A leader must be well-thought-of, committed to his wife, cool and collected, accessible, and hospitable. He must know what he's talking about, 3 not be over fond of wine, not pushy but gentle, not thin-skinned, not money-hungry. 4 He must handle his own affairs well, attentive to his own children and having their respect. 5 For if someone is unable to handle his own affairs, how can he take care of God's church? 6 He must not be a new believer, lest the position go to his head and the Devil trip him up. 7 Outsiders must think well of him, or else the Devil will figure out a way to lure him into his trap.

John 10:11-13

11 "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd sacrifices his life for the sheep. 12 A hired hand will run when he sees a wolf coming. He will abandon the sheep because they don't belong to him and he isn't their shepherd. And so the wolf attacks them and scatters the flock. 13 The hired hand runs away because he's working only for the money and doesn't really care about the sheep.

2 Peter 2:2-3

Many will follow their evil teaching and shameful immorality. And because of these teachers, the way of truth will be slandered. 3 In their greed they will make up clever lies to get hold of your money. But God condemned them long ago, and their destruction will not be delayed.

1 Tim 6:10-11

10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. 11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

Do you want to produce could fruit for God's Kingdom? How do we qualify for greatness in God's kingdom? How do we become good and pleasing to God?

Matt 13:21-22

22 The seed that fell among the thorns represents those who hear God's word, but all too quickly the message is crowded out by the worries of this life and the lure of wealth, so no fruit is produced.

Rom 14:17-18

17 For the Kingdom of God is not a matter of what we eat or drink, but of living a life of goodness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

The love of money has been a hindering and evil influence in the body of Christ. I have been betrayed many times by ministers of the gospel because they chose to love money over loving the people they were in relationship with. John 10:13 He's only in it for the money. The sheep don't matter to him. Remember Judas had a hidden sin of the love of money and it eventually took his soul into hell. We must daily check our heart to see if this deception is trying to get a stronghold in our own heart.

Before we give to any ministry or work for the Lord, we need first to ask the Holy Spirit to lead us and guide us into all truth. The word tells us to seek peace and pursue it. We need to ask the Holy Spirit, should we give to this ministry and how much do you want me to give into this work? For God loves a cheerful giver!

Yes, there is THE GOSPEL THAT TEACHES US TO LOVE MONEY

What is Another Gospel?

Should we have a Gospel of Great Material Wealth?

Should we have a Rich relationship with God?

Matt 6:19-21

Prov 15:16

16 Better to have little, with fear for the Lord,

than to have great treasure and inner turmoil.

1 Tim 6:10-11

10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

Luke 16:10-12

11 And if you are untrustworthy about worldly wealth, who will trust you with the true riches of heaven? 12 And if you are not faithful with other people's things, why should you be trusted with things of your own?

1 Tim 6:10

10 For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. And some people, craving money, have wandered from the true faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows.

Another translation reads:

The love of money causes all kinds of evil. Some people have left the faith, because they wanted to get more money, but they have caused themselves much sorrow. 11 But you, man of God, run away from all those things. Instead, live in the right way, serve God, have faith, love, patience, and gentleness.

1 Tim 6:10-11

10 Lust for money brings trouble and nothing but trouble. Going down that path, some lose their footing in the faith completely and live to regret it bitterly ever after. 11 But you, Timothy, man of God : Run for your life from all this.

Heb 13:5

5 Don't be obsessed with getting more material things. Be relaxed with what you have. Since God assured us, "I'll never let you down, never walk off and leave you,"

Heb 13:5

5 Don't love money; be satisfied with what you have. For God has said, "I will never fail you. I will never abandon you."

2 Peter 2:2-3

Many will follow their evil teaching and shameful immorality. And because of these teachers, the way of truth will be slandered. 3 In their greed they will make up clever lies to get hold of your money. But God condemned them long ago, and their destruction will not be delayed.

Titus 1:11-12

11 They must be silenced, because they are turning whole families away from the truth by their false teaching . And they do it only for money.

2 Peter 2:2-3

Many will follow their evil teaching and shameful immorality . And because of these teachers, the way of truth will be slandered. 3 In their greed they will make up clever lies to get hold of your money. But God condemned them long ago, and their destruction will not be delayed.

1 Tim 3:2-7

Jude 10-11

10 But these people scoff at things they do not understand. Like unthinking animals, they do whatever their instincts tell them, and so they bring about their own destruction. 11 What sorrow awaits them! For they follow in the footsteps of Cain, who killed his brother. Like Balaam, they deceive people for money. And like Korah, they perish in their rebellion.

Acts 4:33-35

33 The apostles testified powerfully to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and God's great blessing was upon them all. 34 There were no needy people among them, because those who owned land or houses would sell them 35 and bring the money to the apostles to give to those in need.

John 10:11-18

11 "I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd puts the sheep before himself, sacrifices himself if necessary. 12 A hired man is not a real shepherd. The sheep mean nothing to him. He sees a wolf come and runs for it, leaving the sheep to be ravaged and scattered by the wolf. 13 He's only in it for the money. The sheep don't matter to him.

14 "I am the Good Shepherd. I know my own sheep and my own sheep know me. 15 In the same way, the Father knows me and I know the Father. I put the sheep before myself, sacrificing myself if necessary. 16 You need to know that I have other sheep in addition to those in this pen. I need to gather and bring them, too. They'll also recognize my voice. Then it will be one flock, one Shepherd. 17 This is why the Father loves me: because I freely lay down my life. And so I am free to take it up again. 18 No one takes it from me. I lay it down of my own free will. I have the right to lay it down; I also have the right to take it up again. I received this authority personally from my Father."

John 2:14-16

14 In the Temple area he saw merchants selling cattle, sheep, and doves for sacrifices; he also saw dealers at tables exchanging foreign money. 15 Jesus made a whip from some ropes and chased them all out of the Temple . He drove out the sheep and cattle, scattered the money changers' coins over the floor, and turned over their tables. 16 Then, going over to the people who sold doves, he told them, "Get these things out of here. Stop turning my Father's house into a marketplace!"

Luke 16:13-15

13 "No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money." 14 The Pharisees, who dearly loved their money, heard all this and scoffed at him. 15 Then he said to them, "You like to appear righteous in public, but God knows your hearts. What this world honors is detestable in the sight of God.

Mark 11:15-17

15 They arrived at Jerusalem . Immediately on entering the Temple Jesus started throwing out everyone who had set up shop there, buying and selling. He kicked over the tables of the bankers and the stalls of the pigeon merchants. 16 He didn't let anyone even carry a basket through the Temple . 17 And then he taught them, quoting this text:

My house was designated a house of prayer for the nations;You've turned it into a hangout for thieves.

Matt 19:23-24

23 Then Jesus said to his disciples, "I tell you the truth, it is very hard for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of Heaven . 24 I'll say it again—it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God !"

Matt 18

21 "If you want to give it all you've got," Jesus replied, "go sell your possessions; give everything to the poor. All your wealth will then be in heaven. Then come follow me." 22 That was the last thing the young man expected to hear. And so, crestfallen, he walked away. He was holding on tight to a lot of things, and he couldn't bear to let go.

Matt 6:24

24 "No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.

America's First 911 Wake Up Call!

The Lord had me do a study recently on the history of the USA and the events that started a chain reaction to take God out of our government and public places. What could the USA do to cause a curse to come on our land? The Lord lead me back to 1963. On June 17, 1963 almost every school in the United States opened with prayer everyday before the teacher started teaching. I was in the first grade and everyday the teacher opened with prayer. But on the day of June 17, 1963 the United States Supreme Court decided to agree with Madalyn Murray O'Hair's suit to stop Governmentally endorsed prayer and bible reading in the class room, which had been routinely done since the foundation of this nation. They still stated that they allowed a students right to pray and read the bible, but the government on that day told God basically..."YOU ARE NO LONGER WELCOME TO TEACH OUR CHILDREN & WE WILL NOT FOLLOW YOUR BIBLE, YOUR WORD AND WE WILL NOT SEEK YOU TO LEAD US, OR OUR CHILDREN!"

Next the Lord led me to look for the next major disaster in the USA. I found the largest recorded earthquake in America in Alaska. The quake was a magnitude 9.2 and it struck Prince William Sound on Good Friday, March 28th, 1964. On God's appointed day.."Passover." "Oh, Lord, this has to be a sign from you," I said. Everything that can be shaken, will be shaken. When I counted the day from that decision to the day of the earthquake I found that this earthquake happened exactly 9 MONTHS and 11 DAYS from the decision to stop publicly endorsed prayer and bible reading in our public schools. "Wow God, AMERICA'S FIRST WAKE UP CALL and AMERICA'S FIRST 911!" Nine in the bible is the symbol for judgment and finality. Eleven is the number for incompleteness and disorder. Mark 16:14 (..they had no faith. They were stubborn and refused to believe..)

Then I remember back on the Israelites and how they put the blood of the lamb above the door of their house, so death would pass by their home. But the USA decided not to apply the blood of the Lamb of God anymore above the doorway to the house. Protecting the entrance of the home from the enemy. I am talking about the school houses of the USA. The results to take God out of our children's life would have a great and horrible impact for our nation . Almost 10 years later, (10 the number of law and order) we set up our own law and order and not God's by taking the decision of life and death into our own hands. In 1973 Roe verses Wade was decided and abortions were now endorsed by the US government. Today there has been almost 50 million babies destroyed before they had a chance to be born and live their life on earth. No longer is the blood over the door of our school houses in America. But now innocent blood has been shed and the responsibility of that blood is on America's hands.

The shedding of innocent blood has put our nation at great risk. Deuteronomy Chapter 21:1-8 tells us that the land would come under a divine curse. It's time to pray for our nation and our leaders. It's time to repent and turn from our ways. Blood has a voice and it cry's for justice. The proud will fall but God gives grace to the humble.

A GREAT MOVE OF GOD & THE FRESH FIRE OF GOD

Deep in my heart I have always believed that we would see a GREAT MOVE OF GOD - A Great Fresh Fire from God, in the last of the END OF DAYS, but simultaneously with this Fresh Fire we would see great conflict and hardship. I have seen amazing MOVES OF GOD that are only a taste of what God is about ready to do. I have witnessed people hit with the FIRE OF GOD. Literally hit with a HOLY GHOST FIRE that burned as if they felt they were on FIRE . After the Holy Spirit's burning was complete in them they came up a different person. The sins, fears and insecurities BURNED out of their life by the FIRE OF GOD. We must prepare our hearts, so that when God's FIRE hits we are ready. For those who are not ready then the FIRE will be Hot and will burn with intensity. For those of us who allow God to change our hearts and prepare us, we will RUN WITH GOD'S FIRE .

One of the things Cristy and I have talked often about was this older generation would pass away before we began to see these events unfold. In the 2 nd week of March 2008 Cristy broke out in tears saying that both of her Grandparents would pass onto heaven this year and she would miss them. Just one week later we found out my mother, her grandmother had just a short time to live. But before she passed, my father passed onto heaven. In the month of May both of them went onto heaven to be with Jesus. We are close to a GREAT MOVE OF GOD and great hardship too. A couple of years ago Cristy told me that the Lord told her that Gasoline would soon go to $5.00 a gallon. Well, we are not far from that now.What is next?

We had better hide the word of God in our hearts and prepare for the world to change and God to have to church He has been longing to see on the earth. This move of God will not just be one man, but the whole true church of God moving on the earth and fulfilling God's call to reach mankind with the Love of God. Let's prepare for the Fire of God. God will use ALL of those who call on HIS name and Believe He alone can move the mountains. God will have His church and the gates of Hell will not prevail for they will be ONE and they will be full of the FIRE OF GOD! The FRESH FIRE of GOD will sweep over the earth and souls and lives will be forever eternally changed. You can be God's hands in the earth TODAY. You can do ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST JESUS! Be God's VOICE, God's HANDS, GOD'S HEART to a lost and dying world!

WAKE UP THE SLEEPING GIANTS

This article was inspired by dreams that I had a few years ago. In my dream my two friends were sleeping in their beds during a fire that broke out in their home. I walked into their house and I could see the smoke. My body was like a supernatural being, because didn't get consumed in the fire. I walked up the stairs to see more smoke at around every where. When I entered the master bedroom the two of them where sound a sleep and looked so peaceful. I began screaming on top of my lungs trying to move them and wake the up nothing worked. Despite my best effort to wake them, I was left with no option other than to watch them burn up in the fire. The fire God is sending will either wake you up, or you will continue to sleep and the fire will totally consume you.

I didn't have the revelation of this dream until now. America is nation of many sleeping giants. We awoke for only a short while after 911 occurred but then after a few months we fell back into deep slumber. When we go back to study major events such as Noah and the flood or Sodom Gomorrah then we see that God warned his people to repent and get right with Him. The people had a choice to turn back from their ways and repent, but they chose to continue to live their lives unholy and unclean; they continued to live their life out of fellowship with God.

I traveled back to New York for the first time it was great experience. This weekend I had to repent and correct things in my life, because Holy Spirit convicted me. Things of this world can seem and feel so right, but the very thing that seems so right to us can end up costing us eternity away from Jesus. The Lord allowed me to see a side of sin that gave me sour taste in mouth. I watched many people live a life that is free spirited life without Jesus. On outside people seemed happy, but the inside they struggled with worldly desires and sin. Sin needs to be separated out of our lives. The world has things that can look innocence, but the things of the world can trap from seeing Gods the truth.

When I was traveling on the train into New York City I felt very cold feeling came over me. I could see dark gray clouds surrounding the train into the city. Observing the people on the train and in the city their hearts seem very cold, cold to God and the things of God. If you could look in the supernatural the souls looked gray. In my experience this weekend I saw the true light of peoples heart and the way the live their life with such carelessness. We must live our life right with God in every area. There is no gray area with God. You are either living for God or living in the world. We are either Hot or Cold for the Lord. Christians fall into sin and worldly things very easily by not keeping focused and seeking a deep relationship with the Lord. Living our lives for Jesus is daily walk... Every day can be challenge, but the end to live in eternity with Jesus is better than anything we can ask for.

When I was round the age of 11 the Lord showed me a bomb that goes off in Manhattan that is in the Ground and above ground. When you would look down on a map of the New York it was just covered in dark smoke that was also caused by fires and chemical waste that fills the air from some type of explosion. This warning that the Lord is showing over and over again. Let me explain something. God will allow things to happen to awake this sleeping nation. I pray that God will save this nation and his people from great terror, but something will happen it is eminent. In Psalms 91 we read that God will be our protector, if we trust in Him. Psalms 91:1 Those who go to God Most High for safety will be protected by the Almighty. 2 I will say to the Lord, "You are my place of safety and protection. You are my God and I trust you." God can stop things from happening, but we must be right standing with the Lord. Psalms 4:8 In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, O Lord, will keep me safe .

In the bible examples with Noah and Sodom Gomorrah the Lord warned people before they were wiped out. I pray that this nation will take heed of the warning to repent and not fall a sleep in such deep slumber that they don't have chance to repent before eternity in Hell. Our nation is about to deal with such great terror that hearts of men will fail. I pray that you will take this article as warning in your own life to prepare for the days a head spiritually and physically. Don't be asleep when the Trumpets sound in Heaven!

THINGS OF GOD'S SPIRIT

My Vision From God

It was on my heart to share how God opened my eyes to walk a deeper walk with God in things of His Holy Spirit. Because I was raised in a church (religious system) that did not believe in the fullness of gifts of God's Holy Spirit; I was taught that the gifts passed away when the apostles died. I would be in the chapter of Acts reading the bible and when I got to all the manifestations of the Gifts of God's Holy Spirit, and then I would read right over it because it did not apply to me today. In effect I was making the word of God of no effect, void in my life, at least for those passages. Mark 7:13..so you cancel the word of God for the sake of your own tradition. Matthew 15:6. You cancel the word of God in order to hand down your own tradition.

Well, in the early 1980's I began to seek the Lord with much diligence. I had given my heart to the lord at the age of 13. At that time I asked the Lord Jesus for the gift to write songs. But when the Lord gave me the gift to write songs, the gifting was very specific and I only had the gifting to write love songs. This became a great tool to reach the students at my high school because I would play one of my love songs on the piano and then afterwards I would talk to the students gathered around the piano, about the love of Jesus and how He came to earth and gave His life, so that we could know God personally for ourselves.

I continued to write love songs into my early twenties and then I began send my love songs to record company producers and publishers to have my music sung by other artists. One day the phone rang and I picked up to find one the of the world's most renown record producers and publisher on the other end of the phone line. Christian de Walden handled some the world's most popular singing artists. He told me he loved my love song and he was leaving for the airport, to Nashville to receive the award for his published song by Lee Greenwood's number single hit, “I Owe You.” Christian went on to say he was going to take my song to the biggest artist in the world.

Somehow after our conversation was over and when I hung up the phone and my heart sank and something inside me felt empty. I said, “God this is not what I really want, I want you.” I realized I had put my songs and pursuing fame and fortune above seeking the Lord, and putting Him first. I said, “God I have left my first love.” From that day on I began to seek the Lord and though I tried day after day, praying and seeking God, then heavens seemed as brass and I could not feel the presence of God. It seemed as if God was going to see how serious I really was in seeking His face once again. This went on for almost two months and then one night I went to bed, fell asleep and began to dream and then something incredible happened.

In my dream I was worshipping God and as I was worshipping God I could feel my spirit being extremely caught up in God's presence. Soon I found my spirit being pulled out of my body, from this point on my dream became a vision. I personally believe that a vision is so strong that God personally imprints what happened onto our spirit, almost like a hot branding iron, so that we can never forget what happened to us.

I kept worshipping God and as I worshipped I was pulled up through my home ceiling out into the sky's atmosphere, where the earth was just a little bit larger than a baseball. Though I could see the earth behind me, I did not turn my head to look at the earth; somehow I could see behind me. It was if that in the presence of God, I was not allowed to turn my head or turn my back. I could only face God. My worshipping went on for quite awhile. I can only describe this Glory of God like this. I knew that if I had been in my physical body, then every cell in my being would explode. God's glory was so great that I did not ever want to come back to earth. My whole being was enveloped with the Glory and presence of God.

After a while I found that my spirit was being pulled back to earth. All the time as I was being pulled back, cried out to God, “Please let me stay with You, I only want to be with You God.” Even though my heart cried out to stay with God, I went back down to my home through the house and back down into my bed where my physical body was and where I was sleeping. Once God's glory is tasted in this way, earthly things just can't be compared with the glory of God. There is absolutely no comparison

Great disappointment filled my whole being as I knew I was once again back to earth and back into my physical body. I still felt the glory of God to a degree but nothing compared to what I had experienced as I worshipped in my spirit and free from this earth shell of a physical body. I kept pleading with God to let me spend more time worshipping Him. Then suddenly again the whole scenario happened all over again. Once again I left my body and I found my spirit being pulled up through the roof out into the sky and through the clouds until I was out in space; where the earth was small. I stayed for a while just continuing to worship and then again I found myself being pulled straight back to earth. But this time when I arrived back to earth; I was standing in bed; that is my spirit was standing in bed where I was sleeping.

Suddenly I saw a drop fall out of heaven and it landed on my forehead and when it hit my head I fell into my bed and then a fire began to burn in my innermost being, my stomach began to burn with intense heat and electricity; like a bolt of lighting and the fire began to move up my body, through my chest and into my throat and as it came up my throat I felt my tongue moving and suddenly a foreign language began to come out of my mouth. Then a thought came to my head, according to how I had been raised to believe that tongues passed away with the apostles. My thought was, “This is of the devil.” Just as suddenly as the presence of Holy Spirit had come, suddenly the presence of the Holy Spirit left. I was so stunned by this power that had hit me that I could not move from the bolt of God's power that had struck me. It was almost 30 minutes before I can move or speak.

I could not understand how this language could truly be God's, yet I knew it had to be God. His presence and glory are absolutely unmistakable! Have you ever been worshipping God all His glory is so great? Well this was 100 times that same Holy Spirit Presence of God. I would have to search the word of God to find the answer I needed. For if this experience was truly God, I would find this experience in the word of God. The next morning I woke up and I told God, if this drop that fell out of heaven was a new anointing to write songs to You, then I would be able to sit down at the piano and I would be able to write a song and it would carry an anointing, it would carry the essence of the presence of God as I played. So I sat down at the piano and that is exactly what happened as soon as my fingers touched the keys a song just flowed out of me and I began to play and sing a powerful and anointed song. At that moment I knew God had put a new anointing on my life to write and play worship songs to Him.

Two weeks later I ended up in a church that was spirit filled and God once again baptized me and filled me with Holy Spirit's fullness in me with the evidence of speaking in tongues. I was still so leery that I wanted God to give me several different languages so that I would know it was Him. That morning I spoke in 3 distinct languages. From that day on, I grew with God about 10 times faster than I had before, by praying in my new language and praying God's perfect will, praying through with and through the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit became my friend and we had fellowship together and I grew in the THINGS OF GOD by leaps and bounds. From that day on I hungered for more of God. I hungered to know more about the THINGS OF GOD. God is an exciting infinite God and the experiences we can have by being in a close relationship with our comforter, the Holy Spirit can be endless. Why live a boring life? God is an exciting God. Today can be that day you walk closer to God and you can be baptized by the Holy Spirit too.

Heaven's Doors Have Opened! II

A Prophetic Vision

Written by, Cristy Martin

cristy@freshfire.com or www.freshfire.com

The Lord has put on my heart that soon God’s glory will be poured out as heaven and earth line-up with God’s purpose in hearts of His sons and daughters in the earth. Luke 11:2 And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth. When God lines earth up with heaven, then God’s glory will come as a blazing fire in the earth!

June 17th, 2005 while traveling as a passenger van from Berlin, Germany to Osnabruck, Germany, the Lord showed me an open vision. We had began to pray for our meeting in Osnabruck when the three ladies in the back sit started to pray in the spirit in tongues. They were all in unity speaking in the heavenly language. I felt darts hitting my back and bounce through my body. All of sudden I am not in the van. I am in a place that I could see heaven. I heard trumpets and saw two angels with trumpets on each side of this beautiful gate. They sounded like the Shofar. Then I realized it was heaven. The gates came open when the trumpets are sounding. It was like heaven was opening up and releasing something in the atmosphere. I saw two chariots with angels holding the reigns of the white horses come through the open gate.

Then the Trumpets sounded and echoed from heaven to earth. My eyes could see high-ranking angels marching to heavens beat. They were the warring angels for the last days, to reap the harvest of souls. As the trumpets got louder more angels were released from heaven. There were thousands upon thousands of Angels and they were prepared to fight for us. I saw them holding weapons in their hands, some of the angels were holding items I have never seen on earth before. The angels started flying all in rows from heaven to earth.

Then suddenly I am back in the van. I look behind out the window and see an intense fire blazing from behind the van. Now back at the van suddenly I find myself floating over the van and I see thousands of angels following us with fire marking their trail. Then I was taken into throne room of God.I saw Glory flowing down from the throne room of God. I saw what appeared to be Heavy oil that appeared like liquid gold, yet it was clear and pure. The oil steamed like it was hot. Like Fire! The oil was so holy, so very holy and it came from heaven dropped down on earth and everything it touched burned up in blazing Fire.

The Lord showed me more of this open vision of Heaven and earth when I was back in the US. I saw blood covering the earth and the cries of the saints reached heaven. When cries aligned with Heaven, Heaven shook. Fire came out of heaven and it hits earth. I saw red liquid flow out of heaven hit the
ground.

Mathew 13:39
..the reapers are the angels. King James Version
Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their
father, Who hath ears to hear, let him hear. Matthew 13: 43
..I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the
world. Mathew 13:35

Romans 8:21-23 (The Message)22-25All around us we observe a pregnant creation. The difficult times of pain throughout the world are simply birth pangs. But it's not only around us; it's within us. The Spirit of God is arousing us within. We're also feeling the birth pangs. These sterile and barren bodies of ours are yearning for full deliverance. That is why waiting does not diminish us, any more than waiting diminishes a pregnant mother. We are enlarged in the waiting. We, of course, don't see what is enlarging us. But the longer we wait, the larger we become, and the more joyful our expectancy.

What Is The "FIRE Of GOD" All About?

There was a question given to me about the videos of Believers in Jesus Christ being touched with the fire of God, “So What Is This Fire Of God All About?”

John in Matt 3:11-12 foretold Jesus coming and how Jesus would baptize you with fire. “ He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.” Again we see this in Luke 3:16 “He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.” To “baptize” in the greek is baptizo (bap-tid'-zo); to immerse, submerge; to make overwhelmed (i.e. fully wet) of ceremonial ablution. Then we see the word, “fire” in the greek: a primary word; "fire" (literally or figuratively, specifically, lightning)

Later we see this beginning to come to pass in Acts 2:3-4 then, what looked (the word appeared or looked is this in the greek) to gaze with wide-open eyes, as at something remarkable. It goes on, like flames or tongues of fire appeared and settled on each of them. And everyone present was filled with the Holy Spirit and began speaking in other languages, as the Holy Spirit gave them this ability. The word “like” in the greek means: about, as (it had been, it were), like (as).

Fire is used in the bible to describe God himself. Hebrew 12:29 for our God is a consuming fire. We see in Exodus that God appeared to Moses as fire. Ex 3:2-6 There the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a blazing fire from the middle of a bush. Moses stared in amazement. Though the bush was engulfed in flames , it didn't burn up. "This is amazing," Then God talked to Moses. "Do not come any closer," the Lord warned. "Take off your sandals, for you are standing on holy ground."

God appeared as fire in the bush and then warned Moses, “You are standing on holy ground.” Fire is something that burns, purifies and consumes all the impurities. From the above scriptures we learned that the fire of God was foretold by John and then we saw this fire on the day of Pentecost in the upper room. We saw how God describes Himself as an all consuming fire.

Why do we need the fire of God?

In Rev 3:16-18 we read: But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth! 17 You say, 'I am rich. I have everything I want. I don't need a thing!' And you don't realize that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked. So I advise you to buy gold from me—gold that has been purified by fire . Then you will be rich. We do not literally buy gold, but it is used to show us how we need to be purified by God. 1 Peter 1:7 it is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold.

We also see that God used fire from heaven to consume the sacrifice on the altar. Purifying and consuming the sacrifice so it would be pure unto God. 2 Chron 7:3 When all the people of Israel saw the fire coming down and the glorious presence of the Lord filling the Temple, they fell face down on the ground and worshiped and praised the Lord.

Again we see this in the bible in Kings. 1 Kings 18:38 Immediately the fire of the Lord flashed down from heaven and burned up the young bull. We also see Jeremiah describing God's word as fire within his bones. Jer 20:9 his word burns in my heart like a fire. It's like a fire in my bones!

So now that you have seen some of the scriptures in the bible about the Fire of God, are you ready to receive this Fire of God in your life? Are you ready to let the Holy Spirit burn out the impurities in your heart and in your life?

Many people don't like what happened on the day of Pentecost to those believers in the upper room who were seeking God. How does a drunken person act? He may stubble around, he may fall down, and he may laugh a lot. So if this is in the bible, why do we some believes not believe the word of God in this passage? Why do they want to cross out this scripture? How does a person on fire act? Probably he is fanning his arms and legs trying to cool off the burning. Be careful not to pass over scripture, just because it make you uncomfortable, it does not match what you believe and have be taught, yet there it is in black and white in the word of God. Matt 15:6-9 And so you cancel the word of God for the sake of your own tradition. You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you, for he wrote, 'These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their worship is a farce, for they teach man-made ideas as commands from God.'"Mark 7:8 For you ignore God's law and substitute your own tradition."

Acts 2:15 These people are not drunk, as some of you are assuming. Nine o'clock in the morning is much too early for that. No, what you see was predicted long ago by the prophet Joel: 17 'In the last days,' God says, 'I will pour out my Spirit upon all people. Our precious Holy Spirit just waits for us to ask for the baptism of His fire; for it is for us and this fire is biblical. When we know the truth then the truth will set us free and he who is free is free indeed! John the Baptist told us Jesus would baptize us with the Holy Ghost and Fire, so what are we waiting on?

STRANGE FIRE?

Strange fire, what is this strange fire all about? People use these two words very loosely, but what does it really mean to have strange fire? Aaron's sons brought in fire mixed with incense and not from where God commanded it come from. The fire that Nadab and Abihu brought in for the altar did not come from the Great Brazen Altar where the fire was never to be allowed to burn out. The word strange in Hebrew translates as, “to commit adultery, to turn aside, profane; specifically (active participle)”

Interesting that the fire was never to put out, and that fire was the fire that God wanted to be brought before him. Lev 6:8-10 Then the Lord said to Moses, "Give Aaron and his sons the following instructions regarding the burnt offering. The burnt offering must be left on top of the altar until the next morning, and the fire on the altar must be kept burning all night. Lev 6:12 Meanwhile, the fire on the altar must be kept burning; it must never go out.Lev 6:12-13 Each morning the priest will add fresh wood to the fire and arrange the burnt offering on it. He will then burn the fat of the peace offerings on it. 13 Remember, the fire must be kept burning on the altar at all times. It must never go out.

We are the living sacrifice on the altar. Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. God wants the fire in us never to be allowed to be put out. God wants our fire to keep burning. God does not want us to get the fire the world has to offer. Many people get angry when any move of God occurs and attack what they see, yet in their own heart and life they have allowed their passion, their heart turn toward things that would trap their heart and soul. Pornography is something that would cause STRANGE FIRE in the hearts of men and women. Men and women are allowing their passions to be towards worldly things, other things that ignite the heart towards ungodly passions.

God word warns us to above all guard our heart . Prov 4:23 Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life. Women tend more to lend their heart towards emotions that would draw their heart into other things that would bring STRANGE FIRE into their lives. Today many would rather shop and dine and see a movie, or a TV program rather than spend passionate time with the Lord.

So how can we follow the Lord with all our heart? How do we know we are pleasing God with our heart and our life? Matt 22:36-40 "Teacher, which is the most important commandment in the law of Moses?" Jesus replied, "'You must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: 'Love your neighbor as yourself. The entire law and all the demands of the prophets are based on these two commandments."
