He Moves In August

Greetings in the Lord! It has been some time ago that the Lord gave this word from Isaiah chapter 18, but again is putting it on my heart to share: "Woe to the land of whirring wings along the rivers of Cush, which sends envoys by sea in papyrus boats over the water. Go, swift messengers, to a people tall and smooth-skinned, to a people feared far and wide, an aggressive nation of strange speech, whose land is divided by rivers. All you people of the world....when banner is raised on the mountains, you will see it, and when a trumpet sounds, you will hear it. This is what the Lord says to me: 'I will remain quiet and will look on from My dwelling place, like shimmering heat in the sunshine...For, before the harvest, when the blossom is gone and the flower becomes a ripening grape, He will cut off the shoots with pruning knives, and cut down and take away the spreading branches. They will all be left to the mountain birds of prey and to the wild animals; the birds will feed

Strengthen Feeble Arms and Weak Knees

Greetings in the Lord! For the past three weeks I have been fasting a Daniel's fast because the Lord put it on my heart to participate with a ministry that issued the fast for our country. On this, the last day of the fast, the Lord led me to read Isaiah 22. It is a word about some of the major things happening in our country from a political perspective. It also sheds light on the things we as Christians should be doing in our lives to do our part to strengthen this country. "...What troubles you now, that you have all gone up on the roofs, O town full of commotion, O city of tumult and revelry...All your leaders have fled together;...All you who were caught were taken prisoner together, having fled while the enemy was still far away. Therefore I said, "Turn away from me; let me weep bitterly. Do not try to console me over the destruction of my people." The Lord, the Lord Almighty, has a day of tumult and trampling and terror in the Valley of Vision..." &

Fires of Revival Released in California

Greetings in the Lord! I wanted to share briefly about the wonderful weekend of ministry I had in California this past weekend. This was the third time in 9 months that the Lord had sent me out to Los Angeles for prophetic ministry. I think the nine-month time span was symbolic of the birthing process that is taking place for California. The word the Lord sent me out there with this time was: "The Lord is going to send fires of revival to California now." Amen! In addition to propesying in Hollywood and Beverly Hills, we went to Malibu and prayed at the sites where the fires of September 2007 occurred...about 40 days after the Lord had sent me there to prophesy His coming judgment to the area at that time. As we looked at the hills still blackened with burnt bush, we saw bright green grass and shoots coming up around the burnt areas. A clearing away--and now new life! I also had a special ministry time with a man called to speak a very timely word: he had come out of a

Wake Up People

Greetings in the Lord! Well, I don't think the Lord has ever had me write about one particular subject for so long! Since January the Lord had given words about the Democratic primary race and after giving each, the words came to pass quickly just as He said. So, naturally I have been curious to see what would end up of Hilary's campaign. While waiting the Lord said this: "The righteous perish, and no one ponders it in his heart; devout men are taken away, and no one understands the the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil. Those who walk uprightly enter into peace..." Isaiah 57:1-2. But, continuing on with verses 3 and 4 the Lord also says this: "But you--come here, you sons of a sorceress, you offspring of adulterers and prostitutes! Whom are you mocking? At whom do you sneer and stick out your tongue? Are you not a brood of rebels, the offspring of liars?" Isaiah 57:3-4. Yikes! Such strong language required more understanding for me.

Unfailing Promises of God

Greetings in the Lord! Today's word comes from 2 Samuel 16. It is an account of more lowpoints in David's life, for sure. The first is when Ziba, the servant of Mephibosheth comes to David while he is fleeing Jerusalem from his son Absalom. Ziba is offering gifts to David to more or less take advantage of the political situation, ie, he sees an opportunity to inherit all of Mephibosheth's estate by telling David Mephibosheth has joined in the revolt against David. And since David is not sure about where anyone's loyalties stand at the moment, he assumes the betrayal is true and gives the estate to Ziba. The next story tells about Shimei, a relative of Saul, coming out to throw stones and dirt at David while cursing him. But instead of getting mad at him, David allows this abuse to continue, leaving open the possibility that maybe God really doesn't want him to be king anymore. However, David0 resigns to leave it all in God's hands: "It may be that the
