Editorial Special Section: Global 40-Day Fasting and Prayer (January 21 to March 1)

Date: January 21, 2023  Source : Rebuilding the Tabernacle of David (RTOD)

RTOD and Prayer Ministries believe that this year, 2023, is the kairos when God will begin to exercise His reign in all nations. At the same time, we are all aware that we are currently living in a critical time, seeing the changes in the political arena of nations, another wave of pandemic sweeping across the countries, unprecedented natural disasters and crisis, the possibility of financial breakdowns, gender distortion and war once again wakes us up. It’s time to call family members from the nations to join in 40 days of fasting and prayer to align with God and to align with one another.

We will post a link to this 40 Days of Fasting prayer update here, and go to the Global 40 Days of Fast & Pray homepage for details.

Editorial Special Section: Hannah Magness: But Then A Light

Message : Hanna Magness  Date: February 2, 2023  Source : “Give Him 15”

Editor’s note: Hannah Magnus is the eldest daughter of Duckshids. This is a very touching post for “Give Him 15 Minutes” at the invitation of her father Duckshitz, so we are here This reprint, I hope this article also inspires you.

I’ve been a dreamer my whole life, especially of places I’ve never been and people I’ve never met. One of my favorite imagination games as a child was to take a globe and pick a random country. I’d look at its borders, the names of cities, topography, and imagine what it was like there. I’d create a grand story in my imagination about its history and the people who lived there. Then, I’d go into my dad’s library and pull out his old Encyclopedia Britannica books, thumb through to find that country, and read what it had to say. Was I usually close? Not at all. But still, I never tired of this game. Because imagining the country, and then reading about it, was like getting to meet it twice. Now that I’ve made a career working in some of those countries I used to dream about, I’ve met them again.

Pray for Israel: Generation Z’s New Wave of Palestinian Terrorist Attacks – New Government and New Challenges (3)

Editor’s note:  On January 1, 2023, the new Israeli government will officially come into operation. The new government has four main goals: 1) to ensure Israel’s security by eliminating the development of Iran’s nuclear weapons; 2) to strengthen Israel’s social security and governance; 3) to solve Israel’s high cost of living and housing problems. 4) Expand Israel’s “safety circle” in the region, especially seeking to normalize relations with Saudi Arabia, an Arab Sunni power. To achieve the above-mentioned four goals, coupled with the transfer of ministries and commissions due to the personnel arrangements of Zionist leaders, the proposed judicial reform and the collective resentment of the opposition against Netanyahu, the new government has faced difficulties in the first two weeks of operation. Many challenges and tests. We will continue to discuss and pray in different topics according to current events.

Background of current events background: The terrorist attacks launched by the Palestinians in Israel are not new challenges faced by the current government. However, the 37th government of Israel is the most right-wing government since the restoration of the country in 1948. There are differences in religious beliefs and ideologies. Anti-Semitism, the ancient hatred snake, has given birth to more new snake eggs, making this government face more new aspects in facing the challenge of domestic Palestinian terrorist attacks. Last week’s Sabbath (from the evening of January 27th to the evening of January 28th), two terrorist attacks occurred in the capital Jerusalem within less than 24 hours, as if to write a footnote for this. It is unbelievable that one of the perpetrators was a 13-year-old boy, and the other perpetrator was only 21 years old, both of whom were Palestinian teenagers of Generation Z (born between 1996 and 2010)....Detailed Reading

  • Proverbs 10:12 Hatred stirs up quarrels; love covers all faults.
  • Proverbs 26:24-26  A hater hides deceit with his mouth, but in his heart he hides deceit. Do not trust him with his sweet talk, for seven detestable things are in his heart. Though he conceals his hatred with deceit, his wickedness will be revealed in the congregation.
  • Matthew 5:43-44 You have heard it said, “Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.” ’ But I tell you to love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.
  • Ephesians 2:13-16 You who once were far off from God are now drawn near in Christ Jesus by his blood. For he made us peace, and made the two one, and broke down the wall of partition, and with his own body he abolished the enmity, the ordinance written in the law, that the two might be made by himself One new man, and thus peace is made. Having slain the enmity on the cross, through the cross, both may be reconciled to God in one body.
  • Isaiah 40:1-5 Speak words of comfort to Jerusalem, and declare to her that her days of warfare are ended, her iniquity is forgiven, and she has received double punishment from the hand of the LORD for all her sins. A voice cried out, “Prepare the way of the LORD in the wilderness, and make smooth the way of our God in the desert! Every valley shall be filled, every hill and every hill shall be brought low, and the high and low shall be made smooth and the rough shall become a plain, and the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together, for the mouth of the LORD himself has spoken.”

【Prayer】 

  • The LORD God is Israel’s refuge and defense: Sovereign LORD God, Holy One of Israel, I will sing of your strength, and in the morning I will sing of your covenant love, for you were, are, and will always be the tower of our Israel , O God of Jacob, You are Israel’s refuge and defense in our day of trouble! (See Psalm: 59:16-17 )
  • The blood of Jesus annihilates enmity:  Lord Jesus, King of the Jews, you have offered yourself as a sin offering for the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Your precious blood is very effective. We come boldly to Abba Before the Father’s mercy seat, I beseech the precious blood of the Lord Jesus to forgive, cleanse, and remove all the sins of innocent bloodshed, idolatry, and sorcery in Jerusalem and in the whole of Israel. Lord Jesus, You are also the light of the world. May the light of Your cross shine into the hearts of 14.3 million Palestinians, and put the cross and the blood of the Lord Jesus between the Jews, Palestinians, and Arabs, and wipe out the enmity.
  • Salvation comes to the Palestinians : Father of all souls, nothing is impossible for You. What the mighty take captive you take back; what the tyrannical man plunders you free ( Isaiah 49:25 ). You must save the Palestinians, especially the three million young people under the age of 25 in Israel, from the bondage of hatred, violence, and murder. Send your harvest workers to enter the Palestine refugee camps, and in East Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, Gaza, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria and other countries to preach the Gospel of the Kingdom and harvest, transforming the youth of Generation Z in Palestine into Christian Evangelist.
  • Break down the forces of darkness in the media and education system: In the holy name of Christ Jesus, the King of Kings, eradicate, demolish, overthrow, crush the darkness that lies behind the false media, incited Palestinian school system textbooks, anti-Semitic hatred, violent killings power. Release the truth into the media and schools, and the great revival of soul harvesting has come to the Jewish youth in Israel, as well as to the Palestinian and Arab youth. Bless them to speak up for the truth together.
  • The new government of Israel is walking in the will of God : In the name of the glorious King Christ Jesus, the 37th government of Israel must align with the will of the Holy One of Israel when reviewing domestic anti-terrorism, security, and settlement policies, and all valleys must be filled When it is full, the hills and hills will be made level, the rough and rough will be made flat, and the rough and rough will become plains. The glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all the descendants of Isaac and Ishmael shall see it together.

In the name of Christ Jesus, amen!

May Your mercy surround them, draw lines of protection for their hearts, and guard their hearts and minds.
  • Raise up a government after God’s own heart: Father, we thank You that You are the “King” of Israel, who has been watching over Israel.

May You raise up and anoint these truly righteous, mercy-loving leaders who walk with You in humility to lead Israel out of the political impasse. May Your will for Israel be done this election season!

Editorial Special Section: Glory Zion International: The Beginning of a New Journey

Message : GZI (Glory of Zion International)   Date: January 29, 2023  

Today’s theme is: a new journey, a new fire, a new unlock of revelation! Chuck said:

One of the most important things a Christian can learn is to understand that our God is a God who speaks, and He wants us to know that we can hear His voice.

Prophecy is the foundation of an ongoing relationship with God that deepens our walk and unleashes God’s power on earth, the following are some of the revelations heard through this prophetic portal during the January 29th celebration. My prayer is that as you meditate on these prophecies, the Holy Spirit will unravel the layers of His plan for your new journey.

This is the beginning of your new journey!

You will set off, you will meet me in new ways, even if you choose to walk your own path, you will embark on this new journey, today is the beginning of your new journey, if you choose me to lead, I will Sending angels to go before you and help you arrive. I take provision from your past and bring it into your future. Get ready today because the journey begins.

I’m going to give you a fresh perspective on those curveballs you swung and missed last season. I’m going to make you watch what’s coming in a new way. What you didn’t hit last season, you’ll knock it out this season.

I’m giving you a new pose

You’ve been falling down in the past, but I tell you, get up, get up, get up on the ground! Stop being timid, I am giving you wings to fly over the power of the enemy. Stand up straight and even become a VAV on the ground. (Translator’s Note: Means “hook”, “spear” or “tent peg” in Hebrew)

New burning and new sacrifice

This time, I’m setting you on fire in a whole new way. I am taking up my scepter as the angel of the Lord did for Gideon. I’m touching those dilemmas on the altar, and the fire is rising from the rock to burn away the dilemmas and dilemmas of last season. You will burn! combustion! combustion! Burn with the new fire of the age of the Holy Spirit.

The vices that have met hurt in seasons past are being burned on the altar of distress. I am burning you with the fire of fate, I am blowing beneath your embers, I am blowing beneath them, it will cause a revolt within you. Open your mouth, and you will be stronger than the dragon that keeps blowing against you.

I’m coming to those hard places where you made Ishmael, I’m coming to the altar so you can lay your Ishmael, I’m calling you back to the fire so I can destroy You create cycles of Ishmael throughout the earth. For I know MY plan for you, and it belongs to Isaac, not Ishmael. So go back to the altar and put your Ishmael on the altar so you can see the holiness MY display, MY plan and you are part of MY purpose.

Come back with your wish and put it on the altar so we can see the eruption of Isaac. That good thing you have created, I have allowed it to exist for a season, but when you let it go, you will be blessed for generations to come. Let go of what you think you deserve so you can move into the next season of multiplication, the beginning of the legacy.

New Forge of Miracles

The center of the miracle has been in the state of Genesis 1, empty and chaotic, but my spirit is now working on the surface of the miracle. The center of the miracle is off the surface of the fire, as I created the earth to run on the water, and I am ready to reveal its identity. You must know that now is the “beginning” of the fire coming down, now is the beginning of when I speak I am right there separating the light from the dark and making the miracles happen.

I am visiting that place and visiting Earth from a place of miracles. This miracle center will be like the furnace where Daniel’s friends were, but it will be seven times hotter! The Miracle Center will be so hot that when people walk in, they will have the confidence to defeat the enemy. They will not burn out, but they will be kindled in a new way, and when they go out, they will fear the Lord. The fear of the Lord causes people to fall under his shadow wherever they go.

When those embers within you, when those tongues of fire start to spew fire entropy, let my wind blow on you. I have a head wind that will blow away what surrounds you and wrap them in fire. You are in alignment with the truth and you are not alone so realize that you must be the one who will start a fire burning around you. Now is the time even for MY Baptism to be filled with fire.

no time to self-sabotage

There is no more time for self-sabotage, self-sabotage is over. You are on the altar of fire, you are on a new journey, so don’t self-sabotage. Don’t say, “This doesn’t look right, I’m afraid to take this step, I don’t know which direction to take.” Take that step, on a new journey, move forward, but don’t say self-sabotaging words.

Over the years I have prayed, I have done, and I have sought, and I have discovered that teaching prayer is no easy task. I can preach, exhort, and encourage others to pray; but I don’t know how to help people understand why God hears some of my prayers the way He hears me, why God speaks to me the way He appears to me I manifest. Even I don’t even understand it myself. I used to think that it was only because I was a prophet. I think that’s why.

At last the Lord Jesus spoke to me about this. He told me that He was able to do something through me because of what I was doing. Next, He reminded me of some of the things He has asked of me in the past. My obedience in those areas paved the way not only for Him to use me, but for me to know Him better. So, now I am going to give you a little instruction in this regard. I know it won’t necessarily change your prayer life tomorrow, but at least start the change. From the beginning of my belief in the Lord until now, I have always longed for God; I do not just want to experience it, but to gain God Himself.

Please let me explain.

Wilderness Experience

Several times, He took me into the wilderness. I have been there for months, even years, crying out to God and longing for Him. I have begged him desperately to come back to me, or to show me why I was left in the wilderness. It wasn’t until one day that He finally led me out of the wilderness that I realized that it was during these days in the wilderness that I met Him face to face, and this kind of understanding would not have been possible if I hadn’t been in the wilderness. Got it.

I didn’t realize that in those days I saw His face in a special way. This fellowship is a deep and inner reality that breathes into my heart. He breathed on me like this every day when I was in the wilderness. At that time, I thought He hid his face and ignored me, but in fact, He was working in the depths of my heart, working in the depths of my soul, making me know Him more truly than before. So, in our walk with God, sometimes we misunderstand Him and misinterpret what He is trying to tell us.

Sometimes, I experience things that I thought were all about me, but I don’t realize until the end or even later that He allows me to experience things that He wants to do in His Church, in this country, or in others. It’s all about learning to know God. Our prayers will be more effective if we know him more, and know him more deeply.

Isaiah 57:14

Now let’s start with Isaiah 57:14. I tell you sincerely, the reason you are reading this message today is because God is calling you. He is calling you to draw near to Him. Everything I am going to say to you comes from His heart to help you understand what He does, why He does it, and the consequences.

Isaiah 57:14 (Amplified Bible): The LORD will say [speech]:Build and build, prepare the way, and remove stumbling blocks from the [spiritual return] of my people.

Now it is clear that this passage, on the one hand, is addressed to the people of Israel, but on the other hand, it is also addressed to you and me. If we want to walk with God, or be used by Him, then we must prepare our way. We must remove stumbling blocks. We must clear the stones from the road. No matter how difficult it may be, we need to align our will with God’s will.

Sometimes, when God calls us to higher places, we think He needs to do something and we need to do something. However, I never thought that what He wants us to do now is to wait quietly, and let Him adjust our soul and mind to make it consistent with His own. Many times, God’s will and the ways He uses are exactly the opposite of what we think.

Therefore, we are liable to hinder His work. Have you ever had an experience where it was too late? I have had such an experience. Sometimes, when He asks us to do something, we think we will do it right away, so we jump right in. But we did it, but we did it our own way. Isn’t this exactly the mistake Saul made? He had his own way, but he hoped that the prophet would go along with him, lest the people of Israel should turn away from him. Learn to wait.

Now God has given some instructions, but what He will instruct next may change what we thought we understood His will so far. If we don’t wait for His next move, we’ll be asking for trouble, doing more than we can get. Sometimes God tells me something so urgent it seems like it’s about to happen. As a result, it took two years for things to happen. So you can’t judge when things are done just by how you feel about His first instruction. And sometimes it can be confusing, and He will give you instructions to take the first step. He wants you to do it now, and then while you are doing it, He will give you instructions on the next step.

This requires sensitivity, which is cultivated in waiting.

If you pray and ask God, “Lord, do you mean to do this now? Or do you want to wait for the next step? Lord, what do you mean?” And He says:

Isaiah 57:14 (Amplified Bible): The LORD will say [speech]: “Build and build, prepare the way, and remove stumbling blocks from the way of my people’s [spiritual return].”

Quietly Wait for God’s Leading

If there is a stumbling block in our heart, it will hinder us from knowing how to walk with God and prevent us from knowing how to pray.

I used to spend some time in Omaha, Nebraska. Once I was looking for a house to rent. The owner is a Christian. She loves our ministry and respects me so much that she is willing to rent me this elegant house for half the market price. That house is indeed beautiful. But I said to her, “I like this house very much, but please let me pray and ask God to see if this is His will.” The lady was a little upset, but agreed.

In this way, I prayed for three days and three nights. I thought He would say yes, but all of a sudden I thought, “Lord, if you say yes, it wouldn’t take you three days to speak. So now I wonder if you don’t agree. If it’s yours will, I will obey your will. So please change my mentality so that my heart will be in line with your will.” When I woke up the next morning, I knew very well that we should not rent that room. house.

It felt very different from how I had thought and felt for the past three days, but all of a sudden I was sure. To make a long story short, I found out afterwards that it was the wisdom of God who intervened to protect us from choosing that unsafe place, otherwise, we would be in trouble if we rented that house. Thank and praise God!

It can be seen that sometimes God seems to be speaking to us, and we may think that He said “yes”. In fact, He may well be saying, “Be still and wait. You are going to find things are very different from what you expected. I will disrupt your plans, but the end result will be fine. Just wait.” Once His will is revealed, and we are to obey it. While God is doing this, He is asking you to remove the stumbling blocks. He asks you to remove all stumbling blocks that stand in the way of His will.

What does it Mean?

It is to confess and repent. Taking the house I just mentioned as an example, I had to confess and repent of allowing my heart to be set on things that were not in line with God’s will. This is very important to God. This is one of the things He wants us to learn to walk with Him. Whenever our desires are not in line with God’s will, we must confess our sins and repent. We must ask God for forgiveness, to cleanse us, to remove the stumbling block or stone from our hearts.

Or, as the Shulamite woman said, “Lord, catch the foxes that destroy the vineyard.” (cf. James 2:15 ) If you don’t pray this prayer, you’ll find it hard to understand Him. will. It doesn’t matter if you’ve been walking with God for 20 years, or 30 years, or even 40 years. So, you have to learn to pray like this:

  • First, ask God to forgive you for wanting something that is not His heart’s desire;
  • Second, ask God to reveal the things in your heart that offend Him and displease Him, that is, those things that block you from hearing His voice. So prepare your heart by removing the stumbling block.

Isaiah 57:15 (Amplified Bible): “For thus says the One who is called the Holy One, who is on high and lives forever (the original text means dwelling forever), ‘I dwell in the most high and holy place, And dwell with the contrite and lowly in spirit; to revive the spirit of the humble, and the heart of the contrite [those who mourn for sin].”

Such is the blessing of the humble, especially when we ask God for forgiveness and enter into repentance. There isn’t much teaching about this in the church today, is there? For various reasons, people keep skipping the confession and repentance. The penitent, however, inherits the promise of dwelling with the Most High and Holy One. That being the case, why do we avoid talking about confession and repentance?

Sad and Contrite Heart

Why don’t we ask God to enlighten the depths of our hearts and give us a broken and contrite heart for sins we’re not even aware of? That kind of repentance is true and deep repentance.

When I first learned to pray about 30 years ago, I asked the Lord Jesus, “What pleases You most in the hearts of those who long for You?” His answer was so clear that I was amazed. He said, “Sorrowful and contrite. I love a contrite heart.” I said, “Lord, you know I’m a new believer, and I don’t quite understand that.” So He put me through the experience of being contrite with God. What’s up with colleagues.

This is not something that man can do by himself, but is born from the Spirit of God. A contrite heart must be wrought in your heart by the Spirit of God, and when you ask God to do so, He does so in response. “God, please give me a contrite heart.” Isn’t this David’s prayer? (Refer to: Psalm 51 ) “Give me a contrite heart.” If David had let God guide his path back then, he would not have fallen into the sin he committed with Bathsheba. David knew the importance of sorrow and contrition, but at that time he forgot and stumbled.

So, once David had humbly returned to God and let God deal with his soul, how did he pray? He goes back to what he knew before: the benefits of a contrite heart. He begged God, “Give me a contrite heart.” God’s goal is to bring all of His children to a place where they live in a contrite spirit every moment. This does not mean that you are crying all the time, but on the contrary, it is a state of peace and joy.

I wish I could help you understand this. Humble yourself before God, and ask Him to search your heart for evil. Ask Him to take control of your mind. Once you start praying this kind of prayer, God will shine on you and remind you of some things, then you should stop and repent of these things and cry and shed tears. Ask God to give you a heart that is broken and contrite over these things. Plead with God to give you a habit of sorrow and contrition.

The so-called sorrow and repentance is a willing heart. Once God enlightens you and reminds you of a certain matter, you should quickly come before God and confess your sins and repent for this matter frankly. Although it is not necessary to cry every time, if it is serious enough, tears are needed to soften the heart, so that God can uproot the root of this habitual sin. And isn’t that what you want Him to do? Thus you will develop the habit of sorrow and contrition. As you develop the habit of confessing and repenting, what you need next is for God to give you a contrite spirit that will bring your soul to the will of God.

The so-called sorrow and regret do not require you to cry from morning to night every day. In fact, you will be happier than ever because your soul is no longer bound by worldly things, things that keep you chasing and chasing, things that bring you temporary pleasure but are not. Something that makes you feel guilty or dissatisfied. Instead, your soul will be free from the many pains of making mistakes. A contrite spirit will lead you to a place where your heart becomes soft and sensitive to God.

In this way, God does not need to shake you too much to get your attention. He can open His own mind to you just by blowing gently into your heart. Therefore, whenever you walk in a spirit of contrition, you will also walk in joy, because once you are enlightened by the Holy Spirit and confess your sins, your personal will is broken.

There is another word for sorrow and contrition, and it is a deep and holy humility. Whenever the Holy Spirit tries to teach or train us, it’s always very difficult, and we tend to say, “Huh? Huh? I don’t want to do that.” Have you ever taken a class to practice vocalizing or playing the piano? It’s as if the teacher is saying to you, “No, don’t do that.” And you are saying, “Huh? Why not? I just like the sound.” The teacher says, “Maybe you like the sound, but it doesn’t Right.” Likewise, we often oppose God in this way.

Whenever He wants to teach us something, we often oppose Him, or resist, or lose our temper. Of course, I know you guys never do that, right? However, there are some Christians who do not have a good attitude when God gives them instruction or correction. Once you find yourself repeating a mistake, just be quick and humble. Do it right away. And the more you get used to doing this, the sooner you will receive a contrite spirit from God . What does Isaiah 57 say?

Isaiah 57:15 (Amplified Bible): “For thus says the One who is called the Holy One, the most high and the everlasting (the original text is ‘dwelling forever’): I dwell in the most high and holy place, And dwell with the contrite and lowly in spirit; to revive the spirit of the humble, and the heart of the contrite [those who mourn for sin].”

Separate from Tradition

So, what is a blessing?

If you have learned to be sad, contrite and humble, if you have learned to accept correction and not to show attitude towards God, if you have learned how God works, then His promise is: He will be with you and bring you into His dwelling place. Of all your desires, what could be better? People often say to me, “I want to walk with God like you do.” And I think, “That’s not it.” Whenever God speaks to you, or does something good for you, it’s so good However, if you want to walk with God like some people, you have to endure God’s strict discipline like them, which is not easy. Sometimes, even very difficult. If you really want to walk with God the way you want, you need to live a sanctified life. We must separate ourselves from the world, from ourselves, and from tradition.

Separate yourself from everyone and everything you are familiar with. One thing I love about him is that in the process he teaches you how to love what he loves. He doesn’t just tell you to do this and that, but He teaches you in the depths of your heart how to love what He loves. He will teach you how to desire what He desires. The higher the calling, the stricter the separation and training required. What I love is that He doesn’t just train you with words and circumstances, but He changes your heart so profoundly that you can love what He loves, understand what He understands, and desire what He desires.

Love to Walk with God

If you love being corrected, you will love walking with Him.

Many years ago, I went to a church to preach. Just as I was about to finish my sermon, the Lord Jesus gave me a word. He told me, “Here’s a pastor who is obsessed with dirty magazines. The man has lost his ministry because of the change it caused in his soul.” That’s when I went into full-time ministry. It hasn’t been long, so I don’t know what to do. Should I speak out in public? what do I do? So I went up to the pastor of that church and told him what I had been told. I asked him, “What should I do?” I really didn’t want to embarrass this man, but God was speaking to him. God wanted to heal and set him free and restore his ministry. The pastor replied, “Everyone in this church knows me and knows my heart.” There’s a pastor here, I won’t tell you where he is, but I think he needs to hear that. I said, “I think this is something that the whole congregation needs to hear, so I want you to say it in public.” That’s it, I said it in public. I didn’t wake people up, but the pastor got up from his seat, walked to the pulpit, and started crying. When he finished crying, he was released. He had tried his best to hide it, and it had become his prison. It was the kindness and goodness of God that caused the pastor of that church to say to me, “I am with you in this matter. To save this man, you need to speak out in public.” As a result, the man really repented and repented. was released, and God restored the man’s ministry.

We should ask God to cleanse our hearts. We should beseech God to reveal all that, no matter how difficult, prevents us from drawing near to Him. Even if what God wants to touch deep in your heart will make it hard for you to give up, please don’t stop there. Start by praying that God will give you grace to undergo this surgery. Maybe you have a temper problem, and you’ve never let God deal with your temper. Maybe you don’t recognize that it’s anger, and you don’t want anyone to touch it, and you don’t want the Holy Spirit to touch it. I know a well-known evangelist, and I heard him say in a TV interview, “I told God, He can touch anything in my life, but not my temper.” God used this man a lot, but in the end But something disgraceful happened to him. Never say “no” to God. Whenever God starts to deal with a problem with you, it’s because He loves you and wants to bring you closer to Him. So, allow God to work in you, let God deal with the problems in your life. Cry out before God, confess your sins, and beg Him to remove every stronghold in your life so that He can use you the way He desires to use you; The way you draw close to Him brings you close to Him.

(Nita prays:) Dear Heavenly Father, I know you desire to do something great, but it also requires the work of an intercessor to accomplish it. Now is the time. We have not had much time to prepare ourselves to be used. So I pray, Lord, please work in the hearts of intercessors. Lord, cleanse them. Speak to them by dreams or visions, or by your words in the Bible, or by your Holy Spirit. Help them understand what areas of their lives are preventing them from walking with you, so that after dealing with them, they can be greatly used by you in the production of this divine event. We praise you! This prayer is in the holy name of Jesus Christ!

Ezekiel Chapter 37

I would like to share with you briefly as an inspiration to you. Please turn to chapter 37 of Ezekiel in the Bible. In fact, I had three experiences like the one Ezekiel describes in this chapter. It was a wonderful experience. God spoke to me through these three experiences, one, about Israel; another, about the church; and third, about intercessors in His body (the church).

Ezekiel Chapter 37 Verses 1-5 (Amplified Bible): The Spirit of the LORD (“hand” in the original text) came upon me, and the LORD took me out by His Spirit, and set me in the plain; the plain Full of bones. He made me pass around the bones, but there were many bones [human bones] in the plain, and they were extremely dry. ’ He said to me, ‘Son of man, can these bones be resurrected?’ I said, ‘O Sovereign Lord, you know. Bones, hear the word of the LORD: thus says the Sovereign LORD to these bones: I will bring the breath into you, and you will live. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’”

Breath of God into the Intercessor

This will soon happen to intercessors.

First of all, we need to realize that God’s prayer army is not very strong at present, and it is far from what He expected. It may even be said that some intercessors are as lifeless as the bones on the plain. Some intercessors are exhausted, while others don’t pray at all. Clearly we need divine intervention, don’t we? It is also evident that He is the Lord of the Church, and He knows this better than we do. So, He’s about to do it. Thank God!

Ezekiel 37:5 (Amplified Bible): Thus says the Sovereign Lord to these bones: “I will bring breath into you, and you will live.”

The life of an intercessor is not one of self-defense against darts from the enemy, although some may feel that way. Yes, the enemy’s attack was fierce. However, God’s promise to intercessors is, You shall live.He will bring breath into you. You’re going to wake up, you’re going to be alive, and you’re going to no longer walk in your own strength or strength.

I have seen so in vision. That was awesome. I have seen thousands of intercessors suddenly raised up, not from the grave, but from a dry and weary land. Suddenly they rose to their feet, filled with the vitality of the Holy Spirit. They ran and fought mightily; it was a sight to behold. They pray for America and turn things around for America so that God’s will can be unimpeded and accomplished.

Ezekiel 37:6-7 (Amplified Bible): “I will add sinews to you, and I will put flesh on you, and I will cover you with skin, and let the breath enter you, and you [dry bones] will live. Then you will know that I am Jehovah [the Almighty Ruler, calling out faithful and obedient service]” So I obeyed and prophesied. While he was prophesying, behold, there was a sound of “thundering,” and an earthquake; bone was joined to bone.

All day yesterday I was thinking, I’m going to hear thunder in this area. Then I wondered, will there be thunder in the Seattle area? I was born and raised in Michigan; believe me, there are always thunderstorms. I had the good fortune to move to New Orleans the other day, and there are thunderstorms like Michigan, which are real thunderstorms. But will there be thunder in Seattle? I have no idea. I had an idea: Why don’t I check it out on the Internet? The conclusion is that there are, but not many. But the thought kept circling in my mind, I’m going to hear thunder. I’m going to hear thunder in this area. After that, the Lord Jesus spoke.

Ezekiel 37:7 (Amplified Bible): So I prophesied as I was commanded. While he was prophesying, behold, there was a sound of “thundering,” and an earthquake; bone was joined to bone.

That’s when I realized the Lord Jesus was speaking to me: I will sound like thunder through intercessors. There will be thunderous voices throughout this Northwest region, and My will will be revealed.

Ezekiel 37:8-11 (Amplified Bible): I looked, and I saw sinews on the bones, and flesh, and skin covering them; but there was no breath yet. The Lord said to me, Son of man, prophesy, prophesy to the winds, saying, Thus says the Sovereign Lord: ‘Breath, come from the four winds, and blow on these slain body, and made them alive’ . Then I prophesied as I was commanded, and the breath went into the bones, and the bones came to life, and stood up in a great army. The Lord said to me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. They say, ‘Our bones are withered, our hope is lost, we are destroyed.’

Intercessors are saying the same thing today. They are saying, America’s needs are too great, even for God. America is hopeless as a nation. It may be too late to solve America’s needs.” ’ Have you ever heard someone say that? Let me tell you now, these bones are dead, but God wants to breathe into them and make them alive.

America’s Bones will Rise

America may be like bones on the plain right now, but I tell you, through the prayers and intercessions of God’s intercessors, America will come alive. America will prosper again; not just a flash in the pan like it was five years ago, but according to God’s timetable, God’s measure, and God’s standard. God will bring America back to a republic. Even though it seems highly unlikely at this time, I tell you, He will do it. He is going to give us a new government, one that will be governed by theocracy. Even though it seems highly unlikely, He will do it. If He can bring those dry bones back to life, He can surely bring the dry bones of America back to life. No matter how impossible it is, no matter how extremely impossible it seems, I don’t care what other people think, I only know what the Lord Jesus said to me. However, He needs His intercessors, and He needs you to have faith. He will breathe into your heart the breath of the Spirit of life. This is why when the Lord Jesus came, the first thing you got was the breath of the Spirit of life.

Ezekiel 37:12-14 (Amplified Bible): Therefore prophesy and say to them, Thus says the Sovereign Lord: ‘O my people, I will open your graves, and I will lift you up from them Come out and bring you into the land of Israel. My people, I will open your graves, and I will bring you out of your graves, and you will know that I am the LORD. I will put my Spirit in you, and you will live. When I set you up in this land, you will know that I, the LORD, have said so, and have done so. The LORD has spoken.’”

The Lord Jesus is saying, I’m going to do it. I’m going to do it. He’s God, He’s not human, and He doesn’t lie. However, he needs his intercessors to rise up and fight to make his will be done on earth as it is in heaven. He needs you to fight with confidence, not with fear. Are times getting harder? Believe me, life in the lows isn’t always easy. The days will become more and more difficult, but God has promised to say: I will do this , so no difficulty can shake God’s plan and purpose.

Burning Joel’s Army Rises

So, I’ve seen a prayer army. In another vision, I saw this army running like a burning flame, running all over the land, praying for America. I asked, Lord, who are these people? He said, This is Joel’s army. I want You to raise up a prayer army. Fortunately, we don’t have to raise a new prayer army, we already have There are enough intercessors, and what we have to do is to kindle enthusiasm in the hearts of these intercessors who have been called, to add new fires, and to burn into flames.

Now is not the time to tire of good works, but the time to believe, the time to be aggressive, and the time to receive vision and understand. What is God saying? What does he want to do? Are you willing to believe the truth? Or continue to believe in what you see? What is about to happen is so great and beautiful that it is worth going through all the necessary steps to get it. Other than that, the only other possibility – actually I don’t think so anymore – is to let the Illuminati get their way. The New World Order wants to put their seat in America, do what they want, and let your kids grow up Nazi-educated.

Call the Church to Rise up And Pray

Yet in Washington, DC, the Lord said to me, I declare that you have reversed the judgment! What judgment? The Illuminati take over America. How to reverse it? By confessing and repenting. If God is ready to act, then you must be ready too. God, I thought, was wonderful. We, as a nation, stood on the brink of judgment. In August 2011, the Lord Jesus told me that we must wrest America from the hands of the Illuminati while there is still a little time left. He also made it very clear to me that time was running out. And in DC-GOE in March of this year (2012), when He told me that we succeeded, I couldn’t help being moved to tears. What is the population of the United States? I can’t tell you how many times when I’m out driving and I see people in other vehicles, or when I’m running errands and I see faces on the street, especially pregnant women, I think, Her Children don’t grow up under Hitler’s rule. And when I see children playing and running around, I think to myself, These lovely children have been given a chance and don’t have to live under Hitler’s rule.” Grow up under rule. God loves America, but He needs churches willing to rise up and pray.

Shemot – Exodus 13:17-17:16

Judges 4:4-5:31

John 6:15-71

The Detour Through the Wilderness, the Dreadful Turning Point!

On the day when the 430th year of the Lord’s Night in the Passover was over, the Lord’s army came out of Egypt. They all went up with their weapons and left Egypt boldly and fearlessly. After leaving Egypt, which way would the Israelites go back to the promised land? Is it a shortcut? The closer the better, easy road is the first choice? A formidable turning point occurs at this moment.

So God led the people around by the desert road toward the Red Sea. The Israelites went up out of Egypt ready for battle. (Ex 13:18)

The Philistines started from the northeast corner of Egypt, along the southern shore of the Mediterranean Sea, passing through Gaza and Joppa, and leading to the north of the land of Israel. The Philistines were not natives of Canaan, but “The Sea People” who migrated from the Aegean region . Ancient Egypt moved the captive Philistines to the southwest of Canaan, and Pharaoh used the Philistines to control Canaan.

If the Israelites passed through the coastal areas where the Philistines lived, it would be tantamount to declaring war on the Philistines. Judging from the Torah, God would never lead the Israelites to take the initiative to wage war, but to speak words of peace first.

When you march up to attack a city, make its people an offer of peace.  If they accept and open their gates, all the people in it shall be subject to forced labor and shall work for you.  If they refuse to make peace and they engage you in battle, lay siege to that city. (Deuteronomy 20:10-12)

The battle between Israel and the Philistines is still a later story, but it was the Philistines’ active invasion of the land of Israel. Even though God is Yahweh of hosts who fights for Israel, He is by no means an evil war god. When they left Egypt, God led the Israelites to avoid the land of the Philistines and avoid unnecessary wars. At the same time, God knows His own people very well. The Israelites just came out of Egypt. Whenever they encountered a battle, the gate of Egypt was behind them. They turned around and retreated. Fleeing back to Egypt would be the first choice for Israel.

God led the Israelites to detour through the wilderness, and a terrible turning point happened in the wilderness from then on! The wilderness is the best time and space for God to train the Israelites. Israel needs to be trained and transformed from Egyptian slaves in the wilderness into elite soldiers of the kingdom of Jehovah. A team of elite soldiers who abide by the commandments of the Torah must be formed, otherwise they will not be able to enter the promised land and seize the land for inheritance, let alone keep the inheritance because of observing the Torah.

Get the Result, Through the Process!

People like quick success, take shortcuts, and only want the result but not the process. But the truth that God wants us to learn is: God has given us the best results and future, and faith is the substance of things hoped for, and the evidence of things not seen. Substance and assurance, God has given us, do you believe it? Let us go through the process with faith, joy and success. This is the opposite of the world. In the world, you only get the result after going through the process; but God’s world has already had the result, so you have to complete the process, so that we can reach and have the happy ending and real result that God has prepared for us.

It is all He has done, so we must experience and complete this process. God does His part, and we do ours. In the process of experiencing and completing, we walk with the Lord, know Him better, and establish a true relationship of trust with Him. We will no longer be chased by soldiers because of sudden disasters, harsh environments, and nowhere to go. , Questioning God, complaining to God, and cursing God when there is a catastrophic and hopeless situation.

These reactions, the Israelites had already done to God in the wilderness, so they all died in unbelief in the wilderness, and it was a new generation that walked out of the wilderness to enter the promised land, but the new generation entered the land of Israel still unbelieving, and was still reborn. Spit it out once. Now is the time for the second exodus and great return of the Israelites, including the spiritual Israelites . There are lessons from the ancients before. Whether we in the last days have really learned our lessons will determine whether we can enter the millennium of the Lord and the new heaven and new earth after that. Win or lose in one fell swoop.

Repent and Change Your Mind According to God’s Will!

This week’s Torah is also worthy of our deep meditation and instruction, to renew our minds and minds, and to test what is God’s pleasing will. There are two “changes of mind” in this week’s Torah, but both are negative. the first is,

Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war (Exodus 13:17)

The other is,

Pharaoh and of his servants was turned against the people (Exodus 14:5)

Here, the “repent” of the Israelites and the “change of heart” of the Pharaoh and his servants, although the English NIV version is translated as “change their minds” , but the Chinese translation is very vivid to the meaning of the original Hebrew. Whether it was the Israelites who regretted getting out of Egypt, or the Pharaoh’s heart taking a 180-degree turn and rebounding back to stubborn resistance, they did not repent and renew according to God’s will.

Pharaoh’s change of heart caused his entire army to be annihilated in the judgment of the Red Sea. Israel’s regret is manifested in the 40 years of endless complaints in the wilderness and the endless death curses on itself and its descendants. Pharaoh had missed his opportunity, and Israel embarked on a circumambulating wilderness journey. Let us regret and change our minds according to God’s will, and not miss God’s opportunity.

“Death” Keep on Complaining and Cursing

As Pharaoh approached, the Israelites looked up, and there were the Egyptians, marching after them. They were terrified and cried out to the Lord.  They said to Moses, “Was it because there were no graves in Egypt that you brought us to the desert to die? What have you done to us by bringing us out of Egypt? Didn’t we say to you in Egypt, ‘Leave us alone; let us serve the Egyptians’? It would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the desert!” (Exodus 14:10-12)

Life and death are under the power of the tongue. Those who murmured and cursed ended up dying in the wilderness according to the words of their mouths.

You will find that the state of the Israelites at this moment is not like the previous night, “without fear”, suddenly and completely collapsed. Even though we have experienced God’s miracles, witnessed the awesomeness of God, and personally experienced God’s pillar of cloud and fire, so that we can travel no matter in the night or in the day without delaying our journey, but once danger comes, or How can we turn our faces and deny God when things that don’t suit us happen? !

I always feel (myself included) that in our walk with God, we must truly know that He is God and the Lord, and we must listen to Him, instead of ordering and blackmailing God to make Him listen to us. We always have to be the master, are we God?

Let us examine our ways and test them, and let us return to the Lord. (Lam 3:40)

When death and crisis bring threats, fear is the most real physical reaction, but in the next second, our spirit man must cheer up immediately, be strong and courageous, and trust God, otherwise the next step brought by the spirit of fear is to complain and curse. Complaining and cursing are aimed at God, and they are expressed in the way they are spoken to man. Blaming and cursing are like viruses, bringing deadly contagion.

Break the Infectious Disease, Bring out the Heavenly Atmosphere!

On the surface, the object of complaint is others or yourself, but in essence it is against God. How we relate to God is reflected in how we treat what happens in our own lives and how we treat the people and things around us.

When people experience broken relationships, experience hatred, experience unforgiveness, and continue to be cursed for generations, this may cause the cells in the person to acidify and release venom, which will not only infect themselves, but also infect others. It seems we will not be satisfied unless others are feeling and suffering our pain and sufferings.

After seeing the truth clearly, let us remind ourselves not to be infected by such a virus, nor to infect others. To fight poison with poison can lead to death together; but to overcome evil with good is to let God’s kind words lead us to overcome the virus of flesh and blood, like eagles flying on high, to overcome earthly entanglements.

I once heard the testimony of a servant of God. When he stepped into a restaurant in the community, he felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere inside, so every time he walked into this restaurant, he began to pay attention to release smiles, joy and love . Over time, he found that the clerk began to smile kindly, and the customers began to enjoy the joyful atmosphere. When you feel that the atmosphere is not right, let us start from ourselves, release the love, joy and peace of the Kingdom of God, and let the people around us infect the atmosphere of the Kingdom of God through us. Therefore, we must first be filled with the love, joy and peace of the kingdom of God.

Is it a Disaster or a Fresh Start?

This is what the Lord says—  he who made a way through the sea,  a path through the mighty waters, who drew out the chariots and horses,  the army and reinforcements together, and they lay there, never to rise again,  extinguished, snuffed out like a wick: “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing!  Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.. (Isaiah 43:16-19)

When we encounter suffering and trials, let us change our perspective and thinking! This is not a disaster, but God is taking us into a new beginning! If we don’t come to the wilderness, if we don’t come to the river, how do we know that He is the God who made the way in the wilderness and the river in the desert? He said that He would give water to the wilderness, and rivers to the desert, that they might be given to His people, to His chosen people, to drink. He wants to make something out of nothing in desperate situations, so that we can be satisfied!

He wants to throw all those old things and people who hunted us down into the bottom of the sea and disappear. We don’t want to live in the past that is no more, we want to discover the new things He has done for us! He wants to start something new and surprise us!

God’s saints seem to experience the same things as people in the world on the surface, but because we are spiritual people, we can understand spiritual things. On the surface, everyone lives in this world, but they are in different spiritual realms. That’s why sometimes we encounter conversations not at the same wavelength, misunderstandings , hostility and distortions. But these are no longer important, and will eventually drift with the wind, gone with the wind. The wind of the Holy Spirit removes the chaff and brings cleansing, refreshing and uplifting. Let us follow the wind of the Holy Spirit into new seasons and new realms He leads.

Let us align with the main vocal tract instead of the person. If everyone is willing to be one with God, brothers will naturally live together in harmony. Otherwise, they can only form cliques and label and classify according to their own preferences to create their own sense of security and belonging. Only those who have truly entered the Torah frequency will break away from human gangs, enter the kingdom of God, and enter a new beginning.

Abandon the Slavery of Egypt and Obey the Orders of the New Master!

And when the Israelites saw the mighty hand of the Lord displayed against the Egyptians, the people feared the Lord and put their trust in him and in Moses his servant.(Ex 14:31)

But when the Israelites had no food or water to drink in the wilderness, they immediately complained to Moses, quarreled with Moses, and even wanted to stone Moses to death. The speed of turning faces and denying people is very fast.

Although the Israelites came out of Egypt, the slavishness of Egypt was deeply imprinted in their lives. This is manifested in the fact that whenever they encounter problems and crises, they only know howling, complaining and arguing, but they don’t know how to rely on God to solve problems and overcome difficulties.

This is all because the Israelites who had just come out of Egypt did not have God’s words in their hearts, only the curses of the world Egypt and the lies of Pharaoh. So God began a long process of transformation with Israel – with His commandments. Before the Sinai covenant began, God first promulgated some laws and regulations for the Israelites to test whether they could abide by them, or more precisely, to let the Israelites themselves know whether they were willing to abide by them.

The trial in the wilderness was for God to let His people abandon the slavery of Egypt. Otherwise, even if we got the laws, regulations and commandments of the new master Jehovah, we would still obey them mechanically in slavery. Get the master’s praise, lest the whip come down. Only when one refuses to be a slave to sin, becomes a slave to righteousness by faith, and obeys God’s commandments, can one be free, joyful, and longing. It is impossible to obey the commands of the new master without being freed from the slavishness of Egyptian sin.

Torah is The Antidote! Open Your Mouth Widely to God!

God tested the Israelites at Marah, and gave the Israelites manna and Sabbath instructions to train them, to cleanse their slavishness with water through the Word, and become holy. Only the Word of God can purify everything. There is no freedom for a slave, only the bitterness of being tied and bound. No matter what they eat or drink in the bitter life of slaves, they don’t feel sweet, but tasteless, so they need God’s words to heal them. God’s word is the antidote, and you must receive it in time every day, as early as possible, otherwise you will miss it.

The tree of life in the Torah that can transform the bitter water in a person’s life into sweetness.

How sweet are Thy words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth! (Psalm 119:103)

Let us have an appetite for sweet words!

And when they measured it by the omer, the one who gathered much did not have too much, and the one who gathered little did not have too little. Everyone had gathered just as much as they needed.. (Ex 16:18)

Whatever appetite you have, God will give you as much Torah manna. Give as much as you eat! Open your mouth wide to God! Be filled with the word of God!

I am the Lord your God, who brought you up out of Egypt. Open wide your mouth and I will fill it. (Psalm 81:10)

Law of the Sabbath

The commandment of manna in the wilderness is the ordinance concerning the seventh-day Sabbath. When the Israelites were in Egypt, there was no rest, no sabbath, and they were constantly turning under the yoke of slaves. BUSY, Being Under Satan’s Yoke, being busy is equal to being under the yoke of Satan. For too long we have been deceived by the spell and lies of the world, as if our lives were only worthwhile in their ceaseless work. It seems like the world wouldn’t be around without us.

From the first day of His creation of the universe, He has seen the Sabbath on the seventh day, so every creation is done orderly and planned, full of His laws. He is not confused, in Him there is no void, no chaos, no busyness.

Let us also start with the 1st day of the week – Sunday, and we will see the Sabbath of the 7th day. With faith, strive to enter into His Sabbath rest, into the law of the Sabbath, and thus enter into God’s order and plan, into God’s rhythm and God’s law! Let us live every day with a plan, goal, fulfillment and peace, not just stop abruptly in the middle of busyness, and go right back to rushing around after the Sabbath is over. This is not keeping the Sabbath; it is still spinning under the yoke of a slave.

If one observes the Sabbath with a slave mentality, two things will happen: First, one will fall into a legalism that I must keep it or be punished. Second, if you are just trying to keep the commandments, not wholeheartedly, you will find many excuses and rules.

People live in the world and work to make ends meet. This is indeed the means of the world. But once we break the yoke of slavery and the cycle of sin for ourselves, we no longer live to make ends meet like slaves, we no longer live hopelessly and helplessly like slaves . We are God’s children, receiving double the Father’s provision on the Sabbath. Getting paid, without working. This is the grace and law of the kingdom of heaven. The laws of the kingdom of heaven and the culture of the world are very different. The people of the kingdom of heaven choose the laws of the kingdom of heaven, and the people of the world choose the culture of the world, each according to its own kind.

The Strife on the Surface, the Battle of the Amalekites Within.

The Israelites experienced the supernatural supply of manna, but when they ran out of water to drink, they still didn’t seem to know how to receive it from God. They argued with God’s servants, and even wanted to stone Moses to death. They were tempting the Lord, but had no idea.

After such quarreling and tempting God, the real battle will come.

At that time the Amalekites came and fought against the Israelites at Rephidim. (Ex 17:8)

The quarreling on the surface is actually the battle of the Amalekites within the people, and the battle is also being staged in substance. A quarreling life brings a fighting attack.

But who were the Amalekites in Reality?

They returned to Ammibar, which is Kadesh, and slew all the people of Amalek. (Genesis 14:7)

Timna was the concubine of Eliphaz the son of Esau; he bore Amalek to Eliphaz. (Genesis 36:12)

Before the birth of Amalek, the descendant of Esau, a nomadic people called the Amalekites had been scattered in the southern land. But from other scriptures in the Bible, we can know that the descendants of Esau, the Amalekites (such as Haman, the descendant of the Agag tribe), often made out of nothing, took advantage of people’s dangers, attacked and harassed the people of Israel, and wanted to destroy Israel cruelly and evilly. Amalek was also the head of the nations that opposed Israel.

When Balaam watched Amalek, he mentioned a hymn and said: Amalek was the head of the nations, but he will eventually perish. (Numbers 24:20)

At that time… don’t forget! Obedience is better than sacrifice!

Remember what the Amalekites did to you on the road when you came out of Egypt. They met you on the road, and when you were tired and weary, they killed the weak ones behind you, and they did not fear God. Therefore the LORD your God will keep you from being disturbed by all your enemies around you, and you will have peace in the land that the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance. At that time, you will blot out the name of Amalek from under heaven, don’t forget it. (Deuteronomy 25:17-19 )

The LORD said to Moses, I will blot out the name of Amalek from under heaven; write this in a book as a memorial, and read it to Joshua. Moses built an altar and named it Yahweh Nissi (meaning Yahweh is my banner), and said: Yahweh has sworn that he will fight Amalek from generation to generation. (Exodus 17:14-16)

Regarding how to deal with the Amalekites, God’s commands are hard to forget. It appears that the Amalekites were quite wicked and hated by God. When we encounter an enemy whom God hates, we must never show mercy. The mercy of the wicked is also cruelty. (Proverbs 12:10)

Samuel said to Saul: The LORD has sent me to anoint you king over his people Israel; therefore obey the voice of the LORD. Thus says the LORD of hosts: When the Israelites came out of Egypt, I have not forgotten what the Amalekites did to them and how they resisted them. Now go and strike the Amalekites, and destroy what they have, and do not spare them , and kill men and women, and children, and sucklings, and oxen, and sheep, and camels, and donkeys. (1 Samuel 15:1-3)

But Saul took pity on  Agag, king of Amalek. (1 Samuel 15:9)

Saul rejected the command of the Lord, and the Lord also rejected Saul as the king of Israel. The Lord cut off the nation of Israel from Saul, and gave the kingdom to David, who was better than Saul. Because obedience is better than sacrifice ( 1 Samuel 15:22 ) . In the end, Saul was killed by the Amalekites . The Amalekites did not fear God, and they were not afraid of killing the anointed of Jehovah. In the end, the Amalekites who killed Saul were killed by David. ( 2 Samuel 1:13-16 )

So what does this tell us? Our battle with the Amalekites is really a spiritual one. In the face of Amalek, whether we win or not depends on whether our flesh obeys the Holy Spirit and whether we obey Jehovah’s orders! When we obey the Lord, He will hear our prayers too!

The Amalekites seem to never be extinct in all generations, an fight the battle from generation to generation, and win in prayer! Until their names are smeared from the world, cleared from the inside out, leaving no trace of their existence. Because it is Jehovah Nissi who led us to fight against Amalek from generation to generation!

Yahweh Nissi! יְהֹוָה נִסִּי!

Moses built an altar and named it Yahweh Nissi (meaning Yahweh is my banner). (Exodus 17:15)

Nisi נֵס nes: Banner, sign, sign, warning. (H5251) He will set up a banner

against the nations , call back the expelled people of Israel, and gather the scattered Judah from the four corners of the land. (Isaiah 11:12)

All the inhabitants of the world and those who live on the earth , behold when the great banner is set up on the mountain! When the trumpet blows, listen! (Isaiah 18:3)

You have given those who fear You a banner to hoist for the truth. (Psalm 60:4)

The Lord is my banner, my salvation, and my victory. When the enemy surrounds us on all sides, let us lift up this holy banner and proclaim the victory of the Lord! The Lord will fight for us!

Post-Sinai Acceleration, Reset Updates

After the Torah “let the people go”, we will enter “Jethro”, and the “Sinai Covenant” begins. We must seize the opportunity to renew His Torah covenant with the Lord. Begin to cleanse thoroughly from now on, draw the blood of the Passover lamb, and do not need to wait until the Lord’s Supper once a month, nor do you need to wait until a certain New Year’s Day. It’s now! NOW! Walking with His Torah, the Holy Spirit’s footsteps is always the best time.

When God resets and renews, He unlocks the code of life for us according to the degree of our mouth opening , because He will fulfill everything that concerns us! He wants to unlock the destiny and will of the next season, and His next ascension is here! Don’t be a chicken in the garden, realize that you are an eagle, so bravely leave the ground and fly high. Let the old things and the old people be renewed to make room for the new things and new will given by God.

When the covenant is made, His footsteps will be more rapid. After all, the requirements and standards for the wandering people in the wilderness and the people of God’s covenant are very different, and the subsequent training will be more elite, because the mission is so important that it can only be entrusted to The one who deserves it.

This reset and decoding, the renewal transformation from slave to elite soldier is beginning! Let our spirits work hard! All the enemies of the Lord shall perish! Those who love Him shall rise like the sun, shining brightly!

Editorial Special Section: Hannah Magness: But Then A Light

Message : Hanna Magness  Date: February 2, 2023  Source : “Give Him 15”

Editor’s note: Hannah Magnus is the eldest daughter of Duckshids. This is a very touching post for “Give Him 15 Minutes” at the invitation of her father Duckshitz, so we are here This reprint, I hope this article also inspires you.

I’ve been a dreamer my whole life, especially of places I’ve never been and people I’ve never met. One of my favorite imagination games as a child was to take a globe and pick a random country. I’d look at its borders, the names of cities, topography, and imagine what it was like there. I’d create a grand story in my imagination about its history and the people who lived there. Then, I’d go into my dad’s library and pull out his old Encyclopedia Britannica books, thumb through to find that country, and read what it had to say. Was I usually close? Not at all. But still, I never tired of this game. Because imagining the country, and then reading about it, was like getting to meet it twice. Now that I’ve made a career working in some of those countries I used to dream about, I’ve met them again.

Meeting these lands has been more beautiful and challenging and sacred than I ever imagined it to be as a child. I’ve learned more about the similarities we share across humanity. And the differences used as banners across culture, politics, and religion. When I was 18, I had an imagination meets education meets reality moment the first time I went to the Middle East. I quickly knew that these nations were somehow in my heart, before ever visiting. I arrived to find purpose had gone before me.

Now, several years later, I work in the Middle East running a nonprofit organization. I’ve had the privilege of meeting these nations over and over again. Their light and their dark. Their joy and their pain. I’d like to share one of those stories with you today. This particular story is one I hold close to my heart. The faces and feelings it holds stay with me.

A few years ago, our staff was doing a food and clothing distribution on a very, very cold winter day. We were in the downtown area of a city that had become a haven for Syrian refugees fleeing that country’s civil war and, later, ISIS. Our organization had long been working in this city. On distribution days, our staff often receive multiple offers to come into the homes of those we serve for a meal or a drink. Arab culture has a big focus on hospitality, so this is truly a common invitation. Most days, we are too busy to take anyone up on their hosting offer, and politely decline. On this particularly bitter-cold, rainy winter day, I said yes.

I don’t know what was different this time and why I accepted. Maybe it was just because we were all so cold. But when we finished the distribution, we followed the kind woman Khadijah(1) up the street to her apartment. The entrance was a narrow, metal door in between street-level businesses. In we went, heading up four flights of broken cement stairs with rebar sticking out in several places, seeking the promise of a cup of tea to warm our hands.

As soon as we reached the apartment, welcomed by Khadijah and her daughters, I knew I would never forget this day, or these faces.⁠

We all sat together on the cold floor, circling around a small gas heater to warm our hands, drinking tea. As we slowly warmed up, we chatted with this family. As we did, an unimaginable story began to flow out of their memories and spill from their mouths, a story of the deepest darkness, the likes of which I could never imagine. ⁠As I listened, sipping tea and trying to get warm, my heart broke. My eyes flooded and spilled over with tears. And when it seemed that the story simply couldn’t get any darker, it did.⁠

Pain, violence, brutality, fear, death. All of the worst kinds of stories you hear from war. Women taken advantage of, girls bought and sold like household goods, abuse of the worst kind, loss of property, loss of family, male relatives ripped from family, lives lost, and evil hunting you down. Khadijah’s story held it all.⁠

As I was sitting there listening to Khadijah’s story, tears kept rolling down my face. We all cried. Some of us cried and listened; others cried and remembered. I honestly didn’t know if I could take much more listening. The secondhand heartbreak alone was too much.

But then, spoken softly in a hushed room, a light…⁠

When the time came that there were no options left in her home country – after the severe loss of people, places, and things – Khadijah fled in the darkness of night with her five daughters. No male relatives were left.

The two oldest daughters carried all they could. The next two held on to the skirt of their mother’s dress. The youngest, still a baby, was held in her mother’s arms.

Khadijah said the darkness of night was her best opportunity to flee without being caught. But it still held plenty of its own terrors and risks. For multiple nights in a row, they ran. Hiding through the day. Chasing an idea of hope that they couldn’t quite see yet.

Even while trapped in a darkness deeper than I could have imagined, Khadijah persisted. She’d heard rumors of freedom, stories of people who fled and survived. So she chased the hope in the rumors.

As you can probably guess, Khadijah and her daughters made it to safety. After several days of fleeing atrocities, they arrived at a border crossing and found physical safety. It was at this point that Khadijah realized the hope was more than a rumor. So, she kept chasing it all the way. All the way to a job, to an apartment, to food on the table, to a new place to call home for herself and her daughters.

 I’ll never forget the day I walked up those flights of broken steps and met a woman who reminded me of the deep resilience of humanity. Of the way, even when we seem trapped in the deepest of darkness, a pinprick of light can keep us going and lead us to a tomorrow holding hope.

The state of our world reminds me often of Khadijah’s story. The darkness in our lives likely has different names than what she knew. But it is darkness just the same. It can seem as though darkness is all around us sometimes. When you face this in your life, I hope you remember that there is no darkness that light cannot lift. Tragedy will give way…the darkness will lift…the sun will rise.

And if you ever find yourself without hope, chase the stories like Khadijah did. Even if they seem like rumors. Because hope isn’t a rumor. It’s real. My hope for you is that you will find a little more of it today.

‘If you’re stumbling in the dark,

Run your hands against the walls

Find every window and every door

Throw them open, throw them open

It will flood a blinding light

And it will chase away the night

Even if you shield your eyes,

Let it pour in, let it pour in.’

-Lyrics from the song Gallows, by Jess Ray

I long to see My Chinese brides restored, healed, renewed, and revived in My glorious presence! Thank you for coming to My feet on the eve of the Chinese New Year, instead of being busy preparing for the New Year, shopping, reunions, and entertaining guests, not for ministry needs, not for intercession, not for any other purpose, but simply to come closer to Me, to know Me more deeply, to love Me, and to touch My heart.

Pray for America: A Year of Change and Triumph

Editor’s Note: This article is adapted from a post written by Tim Sheets on Dutch Sheets’ February 1, 2023 “Give Him 15 Minutes.”

Background: An incredible promise was given by the prophet Joel and repeated by Peter on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2). This promise was of a worldwide outpouring of heavenly power upon all flesh. This deluge began at Pentecost and continues to be poured out, wave after wave. Another is beginning. A Jesus movement greater than any in our past is going to sweep through the nations, saving many, transforming cultures and impacting governments.

To facilitate this, God has planned great change this year. In 2023, we will see a glorious church further emerge, rising and standing by her King. In Ephesians 5, Paul wrote an amazing, hope-filled verse concerning the glorious church that would one day be seen on planet Earth. Holy Spirit has been preparing the true New Testament church for this promise and plan, which is part of reaping the ripened harvest. I believe this process is going to accelerate toward fulfillment in greater ways this year. 

The maturing Ekklesia will be a church that stands for the Word of God, follows truth and walks in His ways. A church that rises above a liberal, progressive, hybrid gospel will be seen, one filled with born again heirs doing the same works as Jesus. This church will unashamedly stand and embrace covenant relationship with the King at levels we have never seen.

Centuries of Holy Spirit training and teachings are coming to maturity. Christ’s anointing will bring out the best of His bride, His body. The King is going to dress His bride in dazzling garments and put upon her radiant holiness, then present her in glorious beauty without stain or wrinkle. I believe we are moving into an era when the King will present His glorious Ekklesia to the world in remarkable ways. 

This presentation will shock many who look at the church as weak, irrelevant and nonessential. Sadly, in some ways this description has been true, but Holy Spirit has been working consistently to build a true church, an Ekklesia, that the gates of hell will not overcome (Matthew 16:18-19). The King promised He would present this church in power and glory. In 2023, I believe the church of Jesus Christ will rise into much greater influence and be seen standing by her King. Like Esther, she will see nations transformed, Hamans overcome, and laws reversed. 

The word ‘church,’ of course, is the Greek word ekklesia and is used 113 times in the New Testament.(1) Whenever you see the word ‘church’ in Scripture, it is this word. An ekklesia was a governing body. Biblically, it references a ruling and reigning church, Christ’s body that extends His spiritual Kingdom rule into the natural realm. This is accomplished by preaching the Gospel of Christ’s Kingdom, which transforms hearts and minds, and also by the church using its voice and actions to influence laws, conduct, and government. Jesus says in Matthew 28:19 that His church will actually disciple nations. 

In Ephesians 5, Paul uses a metaphor saying that Christ is the ‘head’ of the church and the church is His ‘body.’ Much of what we call church today is not something Jesus is heading up. He is not heading or overseeing anything that is an antithesis of God’s Word. Sadly, many churches today are nominal, meaning ‘in name only.’ The true fulfillment of Ekklesia is the Christ-built church, not the religious, man-built church.

In Ephesians 1:23 Paul says the full measure of Jesus lives in His body, His Ekklesia. We are being prepared to manifest this and the result will be mind blowing. The coming days will absolutely be the greatest in church history. We will demonstrate, not a quarter or half measure of Christ, but a full measure!

This eliminates man-built churches. Christ does not intend to manifest in full measure in any institution that compromises His Word or promotes a leadership filled with iniquity. Holy Spirit has been preparing us to take the complete Jesus into the earth.

Recently, Holy Spirit said to me, ‘The world will see a much bolder New Testament church in 2023. It will see very aggressive Ekklesias moving into their territories, declaring God’s Word and refusing to back down from it. For the world will now see a very bold King – Jesus. They will now see His Kingdom rising in greater glory and prominence. The world’s definition of who Jesus is will not define Him or confine Him. Yes, He is the loving King, the caring King, the forgiving King. But He is also the King who will not wink at sin, pride, rebellion, iniquity, or lawlessness. He will not be the passive King who shrugs at covenant breaking or idol worship. He will not take a backseat to Baal. He will not allow Lucifer to have his way.

‘The world will now see a mighty King who handles conflicts very well. It will see the King’s Kingdom grow, expand, and prosper. It will now see a bold, aggressive Godhead that declares ownership of the earth, that declares changes will be made. The King will use His Ekklesias and angel armies to assist those changes. A new wind is blowing – feel the changes in the wind. See the God-happenings. Planned outpourings are riding the new winds. Kingdom movements are riding the winds. Prophecies and prayers are riding upon the winds. Angel armies are riding the winds. Changes are riding the wind. The heirs and joint heirs will be “wind-riders.” The Ekklesias will become wind farms, generating power from the wind to expand Christ’s Kingdom.’

Clearly God has plans that are now coming together. This is a year we will ride the wind. The Ekklesias are being anointed, angel armies are being added to the conflict, and the true church will rise in great power and authority. Strongholds will be demolished, natural and spiritual thrones will be overcome. A glorious church will continue to rise and mature until the true Jesus will be seen speaking and acting through her. This is a year of change and victory.

Pray for Israel: Generation Z’s New Wave of Palestinian Terrorist Attacks – New Government and New Challenges (3)

Editor’s note:  On January 1, 2023, the new Israeli government will officially come into operation. The new government has four main goals: 1) to ensure Israel’s security by eliminating the development of Iran’s nuclear weapons; 2) to strengthen Israel’s social security and governance; 3) to solve Israel’s high cost of living and housing problems. 4) Expand Israel’s “safety circle” in the region, especially seeking to normalize relations with Saudi Arabia, an Arab Sunni power. To achieve the above-mentioned four goals, coupled with the transfer of ministries and commissions due to the personnel arrangements of Zionist leaders, the proposed judicial reform and the collective resentment of the opposition against Netanyahu, the new government has faced difficulties in the first two weeks of operation. Many challenges and tests. We will continue to discuss and pray in different topics according to current events.

Background of current events background: The terrorist attacks launched by the Palestinians in Israel are not new challenges faced by the current government. However, the 37th government of Israel is the most right-wing government since the restoration of the country in 1948. There are differences in religious beliefs and ideologies. Anti-Semitism, the ancient hatred snake, has given birth to more new snake eggs, making this government face more new aspects in facing the challenge of domestic Palestinian terrorist attacks. Last week’s Sabbath (from the evening of January 27th to the evening of January 28th), two terrorist attacks occurred in the capital Jerusalem within less than 24 hours, as if to write a footnote for this. It is unbelievable that one of the perpetrators was a 13-year-old boy, and the other perpetrator was only 21 years old, both of whom were Palestinian teenagers of Generation Z (born between 1996 and 2010)

Two terrorist attacks in Yejing on Shabbat

Last Friday (1/27) night, a terrorist attack occurred in a synagogue in the Neve Yaakov neighborhood of the eastern settlement of Jerusalem, killing at least 7 people and injuring 3 others; the murderer came from a 21-year-old Palestinian youth in East Jerusalem;

On the morning of January 28 last Saturday (1/28), a second terrorist attack occurred on Ma’alot Street at the entrance of the City of David outside the Old City of Jerusalem: a 13-year-old boy from East Jerusalem shot at a Shots were fired at the Israeli father and son, who were seriously wounded and an IDF soldier who was slightly wounded in the accident.

It is worth noting that January 27th coincides with the International Holocaust Remembrance Day. The day before, on January 26, the Israel Defense Forces killed eight Palestinian jihadist gunmen and a Palestinian civilian woman in Jenin, Samaria region, in foiling a planned terrorist attack there.

When did anti-Semitic hate end?

The night (1/27) when the synagogue in Jerusalem was shot by the murderer coincided with the International Holocaust Remembrance Day and the 78th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz concentration camp. What caused these two Palestinian teenagers living in East Jerusalem to have such a deep hatred and want to shoot and kill strange Jews?

The day before, on January 26, Israeli President Isaac Herzog was in the European Union to attend the International Holocaust Remembrance Day event and delivered a speech in the European Parliament, saying, “We must never forget that if it were not for Jewish hatred On soil, the Nazi death machine, would not have succeeded in its nightmarish vision.  …. Stereotyped depictions of Jews had taken root in Europe for centuries before the rise of Nazism. Even before a single extermination camp was built , in the minds of the masses, Jews are already human dust, inferior people. And Nazi ideology exacerbated traditional anti-Semitism, primitive fear fanned the flames of hatred …”

A heart blinded by lies sows hatred

Today, the Jews who have been resurrected and returned to live in the land promised by God are facing the trend of domestic Palestinian terrorist attacks and young people, reflecting that this ancient hatred of the Jews did not stop at the liberation of Auschwitz concentration camp.

While the Palestinian Authority met to discuss the situation after the attack, Abbas accused Israel of escalating tensions and said they saluted the “peaceful popular resistance” of the “Palestinian people”. The attack was also praised by Hamas, the terrorist organization that rules Gaza, and the Islamic Jihad in Palestine. Palestinian celebrations in Ramallah, the seat of the Palestinian Authority, Nablus, Jenin, Hebron, and Gaza in the West Bank, and near the site of the terrorist attack in the capital Jerusalem: fireworks , celebratory firing of guns and horns, distribution of candies and other sweet treats.

A video posted on social media and widely shared by Palestinians and Israelis shows the mother of the 21-year-old synagogue shooter handing out candy to celebrate the attack. The terrorist’s father also said in an interview with Arab media: “Our ruler decided his fate as a martyr. I want to say to those who sit next to me – this is my joy, it is his. wedding”.

Education and the media help the evil

Shockingly, on Saturday morning, Muhammad Aliwat, who shot Jewish father and son in the street near the entrance of the City of David, left a note in his school notebook, “God, or victory, or martyrdom. Mother, Forgive me, you’ll be proud of me.” Aliwat is 13 years old and an eighth grade student at the Al Furkan Islamic School for Boys in Jerusalem’s Shufat neighbourhood, where he studies Palestine. Why do these young people of Generation Z, their adult parents, take the honor of “martyrdom” by attacking and killing Jews. Such distorted human nature can only be found in the teachings of Islam, public opinion in the media, the incentive mechanism of the Palestinian Authority, and even textbooks in Palestine.

“The Institute for Monitoring Peace and Culture Tolerance in School Education (The Institute for Monitoring Peace and Culture Tolerance in School Education) said in a press release issued after the terrorist attack: IMPACT-se examined the youth who attacked this year. and a school textbook I attended last year, found to incite violence and jihad, indoctrinate anti-Semitism, and “encourage students to sacrifice themselves while killing Jews” with horrific content such as “stories promoting suicide bombings,” “Jews are portrayed conspirators, powerful, evil and impure, a threat to the sanctity of Islam” and “the Jews crushed the heads of children, set them on fire and threw them into wells”, etc. Hate was taught in most of the science courses Aliwat took. IMPACT-se states that the salaries of teachers who draft and teach these materials are “drawn and taught by teachers whose salaries are supported by the European Union, Germany and other countries”, whose biggest financial backer is the United States. The United Nations’ Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNWRA) is also teaching the same curriculum.

After the terrorist attack, the international mainstream media, represented by The New York Times, mostly discussed that the tragedy at the Jerusalem synagogue on the Sabbath was a “violent cycle.” In response to accurate intelligence the day before, the Israel Defense Forces launched a strike against a terrorist group that was planning an attack on Israel in northern Samaria. During the operation, eight Palestinian gunmen were killed and a civilian woman died. These international mainstream media have almost collectively ignored the celebration of the murder of Jews by the Palestinians and remained silent.

The Rise of Generation Z Terrorist Youth

According to data released by the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics on July 7, 2022, as of the first quarter of 2022, the total population of Palestine (including the diaspora) is 14.3 million. Among them, the West Bank of the Jordan River (called Judah and Samaria in the Bible) and the Gaza Strip have a total population of 5.35 million. According to incomplete statistics, about 44.1% of the population in the West Bank are aged 0-14; 21.3% are aged 15-24. Most of the nearly one million Generation Z Palestinian youngsters were born to parents during the first Palestinian intifada, and their own childhood memory is the second Palestinian intifada. They grew up with the “wall”.

In northern Samaria, many of the local Palestinian fighters are teenagers, bound together by the belief that the traditional Palestinian leadership is disconnected from the outside world. For example, the Lion’s Den , which the Israel Defense Forces have focused on for more than a year , is such a new armed group mainly composed of young people. This independent organization is composed of young fighters from the working-class areas of the Old City of Nablus. , who come from across the political spectrum in Palestine.

The rise of Gen Z Palestinian guerrillas, which has become a new wave in Palestinian Authority-controlled areas and is not controlled by Palestinian Authority elder politics, may also become the main force of the closely watched possible third Palestinian intifada. This has become one of the main challenges in Israel’s domestic counter-terrorism.

Critical Event: Global Josephs and Daniels Rise, Transforming Nations

【Background: Among the many children of God who were called to be Joseph or Daniel in the workplace or in the political field, some fell asleep because the waiting time was too long; some had given up. However, God is speaking. Wake up, stand up, for that season of trials and tests is over, God’s appointed time has come; now is the time for Joseph and Daniel of God’s kingdom to arise.

God Prepared Joseph and Daniel for this very Moment

Recently, there have been rumors that there will be food shortages. “For times like these,” Joseph was called to store things up. He gathers food to take care of those in need. Both Joseph and Daniel were called to be political leaders, some people need to rise up, it’s time to stand up, run for office, lead the people.

What these guys have been through this past season has not been in vain. God has and is using these experiences to prepare His vessels, to surrender to Him, to have wisdom, discernment, knowledge, relationships, an understanding of time and seasons – even the knowledge to discern and deal with various types of people and situations – and to gain Ability to call for needed supplies.

Divine Connection, Orientation and Assignment

In times of great need, these Josephs and Daniels could have been farmers called to bring out supplies that had been hidden and stored in barns; or they could have been truck drivers called by God to lead the supply Armies go to their destination; or maybe even a business or church called by God to manage these supplies.

Now is the time to connect and partner with God in Joseph and Daniel today, and to distribute resources where they are needed. Divine positioning is happening, right now. These called Josephs and Daniels are being properly placed in the Kingdom of God with the right people. Divine dispensations are also taking place. The winds will gather supplies from the north, south, east, and west, and put them in the proper hands.

Now is the time for Daniel and Joseph to rise up and release God’s people from Babylonian captivity, persecution, oppression and practices. Now is the time for men of wisdom, faith, prayer, grace, and determination to rise up – those who, like the sons of Issachar, can tell time and season. Now is the time to change the guard over God’s people and God’s provision.

Gathering Anointing

God is also raising up covenant-level teams of covenantal reformers who will work together to achieve a union of righteousness and justice ( Psalm 89:14). These teams will have the anointing of congregation, the new wine found in the cluster of grapes , as Isaiah 65:8 says . The reform team will see the need for transformation at many levels leading to national transformation. Moral reform is on the horizon, and even the Hollywood industry is swinging the pendulum toward more family-friendly shows. Part of the congregational anointing will see fellow apostles/prophets/evangelists. There will be a deep partnership and love for each other that will advance the Kingdom of God tremendously.

A wonderful mix of prophetic worshippers will arise that will lead to new sounds and new songs for the new day. The choir will sing again, which will help to unleash and rebuild the fulfillment of the Tabernacle of David in our time. The East and West coasts of America, will be shaken by the power of God and new teams will go out to plow the ground for revival and manage it to keep the river of revival flowing.

The relationship of co-workers with different gifts will promote the spread of the gospel and greatly promote the release of God’s will on the earth.

Pray for Native Americans: Arise and Resound!

【Current Affairs: In these times, I believe the Lord is INCREASING and RELEASING His voice, with great authority, through His “first fruits” people groups of the land. He is raising up His sold out, set apart, Indigenous burning ones, and releasing HIS VOICE to set nations ablaze for Jesus.

Recently, the Lord took me up into an encounter, and I was looking down on my nation of Australia. By the Spirit of God, I knew that this encounter was for Australia, New Zealand, the Pacific Islands and other Indigenous people to the lands.

His Glory Released Through the First Nations Indigenous People

I could see glory mist rising up from the land across the nation. As my spiritual eyes zoomed in closer to the land, in the midst of the glory, I could see people dancing, and I heard a glorious sound. It was the First Nations Indigenous people of the land, worshiping and dancing in their cultural way; the dust of the land spraying up as their feet hit the ground. The glory of the Lord was released into the land as they stomped in the dance. The glory spread and filled the land of the nation (see Habakkuk 2:14).

The First Nations people carry a glory that is unique to the land. This glory is about to be released into the nations, and I believe it is a powerful, ancient key to unlock the awakening of nations.

The Rhythm of an Ancient Love

The overwhelming sense which surrounded me was that these First Nation countrymen and women were dancing to the rhythm of an ‘ancient love’ that compelled them to arise and dance with song; an ancient love that wooed them and drew them back to their first love, Jesus.

“Break forth with dancing! Make music and sing God’s praises with the rhythm of the drums! For He enjoys His faithful lovers. He adorns the humble with His beauty, and He loves to give them victory.” (Psalm 149:3-4 TPT) (Photo via Piqsels)

“We love Him, because He first loved us.” (1 John 4:19 KJV)

An Intergenerational Love Drawn from an Ancient Timeline

This ancient love seemed to rise from deep within the age-old layers of this land. It felt to me like an intergenerational love for our Creator was being drawn from an ancient timeline, up through the feet of the First Nations people, and released into the “now” timeline. It was being released through their dance, their song and their hands.

As we all join hands and hearts, the love of God will become known through our lives in the present day. We will be known by the fruit of this ancient love of God; the one who loved us before the foundations of the earth. This intergenerational, ancient love is reigniting within the people.

During this whole encounter, I was surrounded with a strong sense of surrender and being positioned right in the center of a place that beckons, “Draw near to Me and I will draw near to you” (see James 4:8).

Ancient Strongholds Broken

As the perfect love of God poured out through the land and the people, the sheer power of this pure love caused ancient strongholds to be broken off of the land and the people. The land itself was breaking free from shackles and being saturated and soaked in the love and the pure goodness of God.

Unearthing His Hidden Treasures

The love of God was washing away all reproach and revealing these priceless treasures.

“I waited patiently and expectantly for the Lord; and He inclined to me and heard my cry. He drew me up out of a horrible pit [a pit of tumult and of destruction], out of the miry clay (froth and slime), and set my feet upon a rock, steadying my steps and establishing my goings. And He has put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many shall see and fear (revere and worship) and put their trust and confident reliance in the Lord.” (Psalm 40:1-3 AMPC)

I believe the Lord is unearthing His hidden treasures. These hidden treasures are the First Nations voices of the Land, which are being unearthed from the lower layers of the land, causing them to ARISE and RESOUND – NO LONGER BOUND! Once hidden, now they will be lifted up from the miry clay to decree and declare the Word of the Lord, and to display His splendor. (Photo via Pxfuel)

First Nations Awakened Sons Shift Into Destiny

What I was seeing was the First Nations awakened sons and daughters shifting into destiny, arising from the land with a dance of deliverance, a strong song and a new voice.

“O God, my saving God, deliver me fully from every sin, even the sin that brought bloodguilt. Then my heart will once again be thrilled to sing the passionate songs of joy and deliverance!” (Psalm 51:14 TPT)
