Twelve elephants and a pig
- September 30th, 2006
God is taking His Church, the Body of Christ to a new place, He is calling us deeper. I saw in a dream, about ten to twelve elephants sitting in a circle around a wooden table composed of twelve flat wooden spokes. Each elephant was sitting at the edge of a spoke. The elephants seemed focused on the center of the table, and were with a sense of unwavering perseverance and commitment, knocking their trunks on their spokes unceasingly. Then there was a pig, who was reclining in a school desk, reading a magazine, quite comfortable and seemingly content. Occasionally, the pig would come to the startling realization that he should knock, he would turn from his magazine for a moment, and tap his hoof on the floor trying to be least inconvenienced. The pig then returned to reading his magazine. We are in a time when God’s people have sensed Jesus moving in a new direction and hastening the pace. Many, if not most of His people have started to seek Jesus whole-heartedly, for “when you seek me, you will find me, provided you seek me whole heartedly; and I will let you find me,’ says ADONAI” (Jeremiah 29:12) Jesus said, “Keep asking, and it will be given to you; keep seeking, and you will find; keep knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who keeps asking receives; he who keeps seeking finds; and to him who keeps knocking, the door will be opened. Is there anyone here who, if his son asks him for a loaf of bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? So if you, even though you are bad, know how to give your children gifts that are good, how much more will your Father in heaven keep giving good things to those who keep asking him!” (Matthew 7:7-11) The elephants have heard the Word and believed. The ceiling of heaven is being lowered and within reach.
This message are for those who know they ought to be knocking, and occasionally are found to be knocking, but have yet to understand the urgency of the time we’re entering. We have been taught incorrectly for many years, we thought we could live in the world, keep our eyes on the things of the world and continue to knock. That time has passed; we can no longer keep our eyes on the things of the world. We must turn our attention to Jesus “in whom we live and move and have our being.” (Acts 17:28) We must throw away the magazine and focus on Him, for He is about to open the doors and He is about to give His Spirit to us in unprecedented measures.
Paul said it this way in his letter to the Hebrews, “So then, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us too, put aside every impediment - that is, the sin which easily hampers our forward movement - and keep running with endurance in the contest set before us, looking away to the Initiator and Completor of that trusting, Yeshua…” (Hebrews 12:1)

Todd Bentley: “A NOW WORD–GOD WANTS TO RELEASE DUNAMIS POWER FOR MIRACLES, SIGNS, AND WONDERS”
- September 30th, 2006
God is urging us to focus our attention on Jesus, the lover of their soul. He wants to meet with us in an upper room experience, even if we’ve had one before, God is doing something new, the latter rain will be greater than the former rain. Todd Bentley urges us on behalf of the Father, to wait for Him in prayer and fasting.
“Two thousand years ago at God’s set time, the fire and wind of God touched down in our world, right on the heads of about 120 believers–believers just like you and me. While they were gathered together with one heart, waiting upon the Lord Jesus after His death and resurrection, God decided it was the right moment to flip them all upside down and then stand them up again with a whole new DNA. They were never the same again!
Are you longing to experience a “happening” like that–an event that could potentially “rip you out” to rock the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ? Are you getting prepared in your heart for something like that?
I’m asking that question because I have a “now” prophetic word, a “now” promise from God to share with you. I call it the “Upper Room challenge” because it’s actually in the context of the Upper Room where you’ll be empowered by the fire and the wind of God to leap from your everyday-life into the harvest fields.”

Ryan Wyatt - “It’s Time to UNDERSTAND THE ‘SHIFT’ — Because the Rain is Coming!”
- September 28th, 2006
This teaching is amazing, it’s timing seems incredibly perfect, like some sort of cosmic collision. Not are Ryan Wyatt’s testimonies just amazing and inspiring, but the prophetics words come with transforming power. There is a shift coming and God’s people must center their focus on Jesus and only him. As God’s people we’re being given gifts from on high, one of these gifts is the “permit of life and death,” which gives us permission to break death and cursing over people, communities, regions, States and Countries. This teaching is incredibly powerful. Be blessed!

The Power to Change the World - Rick Joyner
- September 11th, 2006
I was inspired, prepared and left hungry for more of God after reading about the Welsh and Azusa Street revivals. The prophet Isaiah wrote, “Before going into labor, she gave birth; before her pains came, she delivered a male child. Who has ever heard of such a thing? Who has ever seen such things? Is a country born in one day? Is a nation brought forth all at once?” (Isaiah 66:7-8) Reading about these revivals, you can see how God is able to bring about a nation all at once. The suddenlies of God brought about during revival are awesome and powerful. The book stirs up a hunger for the deep things of God and Rick Joyner provides insights into these and other revivals to prepare us for the coming revival and coming harvest that is greater than any other before it.

- September 6th, 2006
“Last week, Todd discussed several vital keys that are essential to rekindle our “first love” for Jesus Christ—passion and ravenous hunger for God, repenting and returning to the Lord. This week Todd reveals a secret that God taught him about cultivating and maintaining intimacy with Him; you’ll come to understand how to abide in the momentum of God’s glory and anointing.”

Parenting by the Spirit

This book is spot-on. I so enjoyed the content, the wisdom, and it’s a light and easy read. I hope this book takes off in a big way amongst Christian parents. Not only does Kathie Walters provide sound principles for rasing godly children, but she also talks about some of her personal experiences which build your faith!
