THIS IS THAT

This is that ...

On the day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit came...

Many Jews were confused and marveled, “Whatever can this mean?”

Then Peter standing up raised his voice and began to speak. “These are not drunk as you suppose...but this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel...” (Acts 2:16)

This is that... is a resource to reveal, and give light to scripture...by comparing scripture to scripture. Only God can reveal God. Only His Spirit can “guide us into all truth.” (John 16:13)

End Days and The Prophets

The Church is living through a season on earth called the End Days.

The pre-season event, before the rapture, includes a wake-up call to the nations to finally do what Jesus commanded before He ascended. “And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. But he who endures to the end shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.” (Matthew 24:12-14)

The gospel of the Kingdom means signs and wonders accompany the preaching of the Word while we “watch” for His return!

Recap of the Past Few Months
To those of us who have been called to intercede for the United States, this time has almost been exhausting, pressing in to retain the foundations of our republic and a President that loves this nation. Then came the month of January and evil took over our nation’s capital.

One might wonder, did God hear our prayers?

Why weren’t they answered? Will God punish the godly with the wicked? God did hear His body praying; after all, we were praying in His Holy Spirit. The view from Heaven: prayers are kept in “golden bowls of incense.” (Revelation 5:8)

We are in a time of God pulling back the blanket of corruption that’s been going on for years. For The Church, it is a time of trusting the Father, knowing that He can’t reveal everything right now.

Walk by faith and not by sight.

Prophecies and Our Present Circumstances
Many Believers seek to hear what the prophets are saying, but I have been reminded that the most accurate prophetic declarations are in the Holy Scriptures. The Minor Prophets have much to reveal about these end days. I have been studying the Book of Zephaniah and noticed so many similarities to our nation’s present circumstances. I would like to encourage you to read it. It’s only three chapters.

Our Father’s anger at national sin and the consequences thereof are Current Events today. God often brings judgment to humble man to repentance, and through repentance comes the Great Awakening, which is an answer to our prayers!

This is that … which Jesus promises to His Church.
“Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.” (Revelation 3:10)

“Watch therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming …” (Mark 13:35)

Lord, with all that’s going on, I thought The Church would have been raptured by now.
Why are we still here?
“To release the Kingdom of God on earth.” (Matthew 6:10)
That’s our purpose Saints, praise God!

The Seed of Heaven
“It shall come to pass in that day
That his burden will be taken away from your shoulder,
And his yoke from your neck,
And the yoke will be destroyed because of the anointing oil.” (Isaiah 27:10)

What is the Anointing?
The anointing is the power of God that was released to Adam and Eve in the garden through words Father spoke to them. Read Genesis 1:26-28. The yoke came upon mankind when Adam and Eve sinned, in other words it opened the door to the devil and the curse of his bondage. The anointing destroys that yoke of evil and bondage to set the captive free. This is why God sent His Son to earth.

The Anointing and The Gospel
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me,
Because He has anointed Me
To preach the gospel to the poor;
He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set at liberty those who are oppressed;
To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.”
‘Then He closed the book, and gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all who were in the synagogue were fixed on Him. And He began to say to them, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.’” (Luke 4:18-21)

Jesus Christ:
He is “The Anointed One.” Christ (Messiah) is not Jesus’ last name, but refers to His identity as the “chosen One” having unlimited power from God.

The Gospel:
The good news, The Gospel of Jesus Christ, is the proclamation of God’s Mighty Kingdom upon earth to destroy the yoke off of man. It is everything! Without this, man is miserable. Christ in us the hope of glory. That is the intense expectation of the fullness of His majesty released through His Saints!

Most people in Jesus’ home town did not accept that He was the promised Messiah but rejected Him saying, “Is this not Joseph’s son?” What was the result? He could do NO mighty works there! Well, why aren’t we seeing this great power released in the local church?

The Anointing and The Body of Christ:
The Glorious Church!
Peter was sent to the home of Cornelius to release the message of salvation to the Gentiles. He told Cornelius: “… God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.” (Acts 10:38)

As Peter continued speaking “the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word.” Result? “They heard them speak with tongues and magnify God.” What happened? The power of the anointing with signs following was now available for the nations! But if Jesus Christ is preached without faith in His power, signs of the Kingdom are unavailable.

The Same Anointing Teaches You! (1 John 2:20)
Believer, you have an unction, “an anointing from the Holy One and you know all things.” How? “… we have the mind of Christ” … the same anointing that was on Jesus.
(1 Corinthians 2:16)

“As the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.” (Read 1 John 2:20 & 27)

Releasing the Anointing: Tongues
“And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues…” (Mark 16:17) The benefits of praying in the spirit can open up Kingdom secrets to us and at the same time release assignments to angels. Read Psalm 103:19-20 & 1 Corinthians 13:1

Tongues, it’s a funny name, but what is it really? It’s one of the “keys” Jesus gave His Body so that the gates of hell would not prevail against us! (Mt. 16:18-19) And practice makes perfect — bringing maturity to us while enforcing our rights as Ambassadors of God’s Kingdom against national disorder! It’s very, very powerful. Endeavor to exercise more this key of the Kingdom. It’s amazing what it will open up for you. It gives us “eyes” to see!

The Seed of Heaven
Enemies of the Gospel in our nation want to stop the Great Awakening, that’s why we had a fraudulent election. Brother Copeland prophesied 2021 is The Year of the Local Church! The Church, Jesus and His Body, must be strong in Him to actively use the keys to bind and loose God’s power in the local church. (Matthew 16:18-19)

Pray for repentance to come upon enemies of the Gospel, but do forbid their plans of wickedness.

Where’s the anointing?
Pastors need to get on board and preach/teach the power of the Holy Spirit and His anointing. So many Pastors are feeding the sheep garbage! No nutritional value at all to the growth of God’s people in how to live in the Spirit. Pastors are required to preach God’s Word so that faith can come. Faith for the anointing, faith for tongues, faith for healing, signs, wonders, miracles must be preached! “So then faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.” (Romans 10:17)

Through hearing, the Word gets into the heart of man. (Notice ear in heart?)

Believer, you have a production center within you, a power plant from the Kingdom of God. You speaking in tongues is vital to releasing supernatural manifestations that break the yoke of bondage off people, whether by laying hands on them or by the power of prayer and intercession! It not only opens doors of the spirit for others, but for you also.

Beloved, the Lord wants you strong and well! (3 John 2)
Do not carry cares upon you.

This is that … the end of the age is upon our generation!
“So then each of us will give an account of himself to God.”
(Romans 14:12)

The End Days
“Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come. Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God. Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time.” (2 Thessalonians 2:1-6)

Gathering – shaken - day of Christ – deceive – falling - perdition - opposes - exalts - restraining; all have their fulfillment in the end days. What a privilege to be called to fulfill our assignments in these days.

Let’s look deeper into these words that are highlighted in our text by searching what they specifically mean according to this passage. I am using the Vine’s Expository Dictionary and the Strong’s Concordance.

Gathering: a gathering together, is used of the rapture of the saints.
Shaken: to agitate, primarily of the action of stormy winds; of the natural forces of the heavens and heavenly bodies (Matthew 24:29, Mark 13:25, Luke 21:26); to unsettle, “(to the end that) ye be not (quickly) shaken (from your mind),” i.e., from their settled conviction and the purpose of heart begotten by it, as to the return of Christ before the Day of the Lord begins; the metaphor (of shaken) may be taken from the loosening of a ship from its moorings by a storm.
Troubled: to make an outcry; tumult; affliction; tribulation
Day of Christ: is the day of His manifested judgment on the world. The Apostle’s warning is that the church in Thessalonica should not be deceived by thinking that “the Day of the Lord is now present.” This period will not begin till the circumstances mentioned in verses 3 and 4 take place.
Deceive: to seduce wholly; to cheat; beguile, that which gives a false impression, a bait; snare; delude; error; wandering
Falling away: signifies the apostasy from faith; abandoning what one believed in. (See Luke 18:8). In papyri documents it is used politically of rebels; violence, rebellion.
Perdition: destruction; ruin, loss, spiritual destitution; physical and eternal destruction; death; perishing; eternal ruin.
Oppose: to set oneself opposite; an adversary; the opponent and self-exalter. Some would use the word in a legal sense since the devil accuses men before God. (1 Peter 5:8)
Exalts: to raise over; of exalting oneself above exceedingly
Restrain: to hold back or down; being restrained in its development; to arrest, take possession of, lay hold of, detain

What is restraining? Who is Holding Back Evil?
“But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you …” You have a “power plant” inside you! The Glorious Church (full of glory), and the greater armies of angels are restraining demonic forces and the coming antichrist.

The Power of Intercession
Recently I heard someone begin to pray by asking God to do something He told them to do. Many Christians do not know their authority or know it but fail to engage their weapons through their words. We are soldiers in the army of the Lord and have the power of the Holy Spirit in us. Genesis Chapter 1 reveals the Holy Spirit was hovering over the void and darkness of earth. Then God spoke “Light be and light was!” When we pray in tongues and in English, the same Holy Spirit is being released through us to change what is contrary to line up with God’s will. Our overall assignment is for the Kingdom of God to be established on earth, which, of course, our number one priority at this late date is the saving of souls.

The Weapons of Our Warfare
Much of the church is not doing what Jesus said.
“And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” (Matthew 16:18-19) For an anointed intercessor, those keys (words) are in your mouth. They unlock and release God’s will or forbid that which is evil. All things are subject to change. “While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.” (2 Corinthians 4:18)

If you walk closely with God you know He doesn’t always lay out the entire details of His plan. He expects us to trust in Him no matter what it looks like. I believe God is right in the middle of this whole mess in the government. When a house is being remodeled because of many years of neglect, it can be stressful to go through days of removing decayed floors and walls and getting rid of rat infestation. What God is doing is necessary as He is opening up everything for all to see. Don’t spend a lot of time watching the news, especially if you notice fear coming in. Intercessors don’t need to stay up on all the current news to pray. It’s important to pray from a place of peace. Tongues will take you into the spirit to hit the target with precision accuracy!

Intercession requires faith so God can move. Stay in the Word and walk in love. Be bold to witness! People are searching.

Yes, the glory of God is coming as the latter rain!
Signs, wonders, and miracles are coming as a flood. You can sense the shift when you pray in tongues. Do this often. Let’s go full force in praying with sincere hearts of love for those in government offices to come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. The Intercessor, our High Priest, works through us. If He forgave us our sins, we must forgive others who are greatly deceived.

Remember what Jesus did to Saul of Tarsus? (Acts 9:1-19) Remember Jesus on the cross? “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.” (Luke 23:34) If all the church goes after this with all their heart, it will release the glory like a flood!!! And remember to bind the deceiver.

While we’re working, keep looking for His return every day!
“Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.” (Matthew 25:13)

This is that … which is praying with all kinds of prayer.
“For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled.” (2 Corinthians 10:3-6)

P.S.
After completing this writing I took a break before making corrections from my Editor, (husband). I listened to a video teaching by Cathy Duplantis. She was preaching at her church on 1.24.21 on this very subject. It’s an anointed power-packed message.

Put the cursor on 1 hour 5 minutes to hear the teaching.

This is what happens when God shows up!
Separation for Judgment
When evil men rose up against Moses and God’s plan for Israel, God told Moses to separate all the congregation from the wicked.
“Now it came to pass, as he finished speaking all these words, that the ground split apart under them, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up, with their households and all the men with Korah, with all their goods. So they and all those with them went down alive into the pit; the earth closed over them, and they perished from among the assembly.” (Numbers 16:31-33)

Abraham’s nephew Lot, who lived in the depraved city of Sodom, was removed from his home, he and his family, before God’s righteous judgment was released.
“Then the Lord rained brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah, from the Lord out of the heavens. So He overthrew those cities, all the plain, all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew on the ground.” (Genesis 19:24-25)

Jesus reveals the separation of the End-Days.
“Therefore as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of this age. The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who practice lawlessness, and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!” (Matthew 13:41-43)

This is what happens when God shows up!
Separation for The Glory: Intercessory Prayer
One hundred twenty people were praying in the upper room on the day that changed everything.
“When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.” (Acts 2:1-6)

One aspect of this divine utterance is the “keys of the Kingdom of God,” meaning words of administrative authority that bind and loose. Read Matthew 16:18-19, Jeremiah 1:9-10, Isaiah 51:16, Mark 16:14-20.

Why doesn’t all of The Church know this and do it?

Hence, rampant wickedness in our nation … like the stupidity of some cities de-funding the police. Let’s get back in the driver’s seat and let Holy Spirit have His way! The “sword of the Spirit” is our only offensive weapon … “praying always with all prayer …” (Ephesians 6:17-19)

Separation of the Ekklesia
Ekklesia means “the called out ones.” Jesus said, “You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go bear fruit …”

“Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: ‘I will dwell in them, and walk among them. I will be their God, and they shall be My people.’ Therefore, ‘come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, and I will receive you. I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.’” (2 Corinthians 6:14-18)

This is what happens when God shows up!
2020 – 2021 The Great Awakening
I am often at the beach looking at the grand and enormous body of water called the Pacific Ocean. Sometimes I can see a wave developing very far from shore coming in. Waves get larger as they come closer to the shore. If those waves and currents below are strong enough, the power of them can easily sink a large ship. There is a great wave of glory approaching the nations; some of its effects are here now. Nothing can stop it.

This past year God has been separating His Church from the world.

That means God has been convicting us of sinful practices that hold back the Holy Spirit from releasing signs, wonders, and miracles. 2020 has required us to be more holy and single-minded to fight the good fight of faith, to “wage a good warfare” contending for the anointing and the Kingdom of God to prevail for The Church, our Constitution, our nation, our President, and our freedoms; so many in the military have suffered and even shed their blood to save this nation. We cannot grow weary and give up for our finest hour has now come!

This is what happens when God shows up!
The Glorious Church and The Angelic Armies of God
Not only are we the generation that will be caught up in the air in a twinkling of an eye to meet Jesus, but we have a responsibility to bring in the lost, for Father is preparing His Son’s wedding feast. “On the third day there was a wedding …” (John 2:1) Selah

We also have the joy of fulfilling this scripture:
“Sit at My right hand till I make Your enemies Your footstool. Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation?” (Hebrews 1:13-14) Through the power of the Holy Spirit in us, we are working with the Greater Armies of Angels who are released now! They are waiting for The Church to release their assignments.

The Church Body is the governing force on the earth, not any political party!

The nations are as a “drop in a bucket” to our great King! Read Isaiah 40:12-23. Our assignments are released as we rule and “reign,” taking our seat in heavenly places in Christ. (Romans 5:17 & Ephesians 2:6) Pull down strongholds, call things that be not as though they were. Subdue every tactic of the enemy. Praying in tongues is required for this. And, tongues will build up your courage! It is a super-weapon that devils flee from!

This is that … which God has waited for …
“But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.”
(1 Peter 2:9-10)

All things are moving toward the return of Jesus Christ.

The Vision: Actually Two

1. While praying on October 20, 2016, I had a vision.
I was attending Billye Brim’s Autumn Assembly on-line. Lynn Hammond gave an anointed teaching and then led everyone into powerful intercession. While praying for the 2016 Presidential Election, God rolled back the natural and let me see into the spiritual. I posted what I saw on Prayer with Purpose.org, - the 11.1.16 Tuesday Bible Study, now called The Library. The nation would vote on 11.8.16. I knew the vision had to do with the election of Donald Trump. I knew it meant that he would win.

Trying to describe the vision into the natural seems restrictive, like trying to tell someone about an exciting chase scene in a movie, but here it is, what I wrote four years ago.

"I saw the U.S. - as a gigantic land and spiritual mass, being slowly lifted up from the earth. The wicked were angry and extending their arms - trying to grab hold of her - to possess her, to stop her ascent into the air. They could not touch her; they could not grab hold to keep her. They could not stop her ascent when she began to rise. God and His might were lifting her up — higher and higher — and then higher and higher again, completely out of their reach!!! The wicked watched and went into extreme anger and torment as the U.S. went out of their reach. They watched in awe, looking up as the U.S. arose from their grasp, under the power of God. The U.S. will prosper and break out in revival from the west to the east like a flood that NO one can prevent or stop.”

2. Eleven Days Later: Interceding For the Election
October 31, 2016
”I saw the nation again, rising up under the power of God. This time I noticed that directly underneath the land mass, there was an enormous multitude of praying people with their arms extended upward, lifting the United States up from evil as God was working through them. Saints, continue to pray for our nation. Don't be moved. The best is yet to come! GOD IS WITH US!”

November 19, 2020
This past week I had prepared a rough draft teaching for “This is that …” But that was subject to change. This morning, around 4:00 am, the Lord reminded me about the vision I saw four years ago. The vision above does not describe the awful blackness of those who were trying to hold onto the United States as it arose out of their hands. I could not tell where the people ended and evil demons started; they seemed to be the same, ugly creatures, and black, deep blackness was all about them and inside them. I still cannot adequately put this into words.

This morning I noticed something. “Why two visions Lord?”
“They represent the election of 2016 and the election of 2020!”
“Lord, I didn’t know that!”

I believe in the second vision there was even more evil, chaos, and blackest black under the outline of the U.S. I thought of Black Lives Matter, Antifa, and evil wealthy men.

Something else … The corruption in the Elections, especially Presidential Elections, has been going on for many years. Why were the 2016 election results such a SHOCK to Obama and Clinton? Obama didn’t even appoint several hundred Judges so that Clinton would do it … hmmm. I believe Father God entered into the 2016 Election with a miracle, having Trump votes counted honestly! Well, why wouldn’t He do that now? Father wants this awful corruption exposed, brought into the light for all to see. Roaches in a kitchen are not seen during the day. But at night, hidden in the darkness, they come out.

It’s not a pleasant time we are going through. Father knows that. But remember, we are of that generation who has been taught faith and how to use it! Joshua and the next generation of God’s children had the task of getting rid of evil doers in Canaan, but they knew they were not alone. The previous generation had removed the “Almighty God equation” and died in the wilderness. Exactly what they said would happen. Interesting fact, the 10 men who gave an evil report died of a “plague before the LORD.” Read Numbers 14:26-38 — it’s interesting.

Without faith it is impossible to please the LORD! Well, of course, how would you feel if someone didn’t believe a word you said?

2020 The Year of Great Change
(Read Kenneth Copeland’s Prophetic Word: Click here)
https://www.prayerwithpurpose.org/2020-prophetic-word.html

What is Jesus’ assignment in 2020?
To sanctify and cleanse the church. How? With the washing of water by the word of God.
Why? To present the church to Himself … a Glorious Church. That means a church full of glory — not a church full of worldliness and sin. The glorious church is not to have spots, wrinkles, or any such thing. She should be without blemish. (Ephesians 5:26-27)

The Power and Force of The Church through Intercession
Each intercessor, each day moving in Holy Spirit prayer, is like a battering ram against the gates of hell! Jesus said those strongholds cannot stop us! Our spiritual weapons of warfare are mighty in God. God’s Spirit within each of us are demolishing strongholds of satan! Our weapons are far greater than the atom bomb that destroyed Hiroshima in World War II.

To have the full impact of that fire power each Intercessor must live a holy life, separated from the world, its opinions, and its evil ways. Hours of news programs will hinder that fire power. Faith comes by hearing, but fear comes by hearing also. The evil report of the ten spies caused the entire nation to weep all night. Fear is an enemy to the power of intercession that changes things! Guard your heart! Remember, an evil report is a declaration that is the opposite of what God has said! That can be very contagious. And if you’re not planting God’s Word in your heart, forget prayer. Your gun is empty!

Remember the vision? What’s lifting the U.S. out of the strongholds of devils? Effective prayer! (James 5:16-18)

2020 The Year of Great Change: The Year of Preparation!
Preparation for what? Company is coming!
Jesus’ earthly ministry was revealed the last three years of His life. That’s when signs, wonders, and miracles, came through a holy vessel without spot, wrinkle, or blemishes.

Jesus is preparing His Body on earth for The Great Outpouring — The Latter Rain! Beyond that is The Great Rapture of The Glorified Church! God’s glory is about to come forth. How? Out of The Glorious Church!

This is that … which requires two …
“Have faith in God.”
“For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.” (Mark 11:22-23)

Breath – Wind – Holy Spirit: Healing!
In the beginning, Father breathed the breath of life into man’s nostrils and man became a living being. (Genesis 2:7) On the Day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit came as a sound from heaven, as a mighty rushing wind that came upon the disciples in the upper room and all “were filled and spoke in tongues.”

Filled with what? Power! (Acts 1:8)

That same day, as the disciples went out into the streets preaching the Kingdom of God, three-thousand souls were born again. (Acts Chapter 2) Three thousand people had God’s powerful Spirit enter into them to help them overcome all obstacles and help them fulfill their Kingdom assignments. The Holy Spirit is the Healer for the multitudes, but also, for the disciples.

After all, God’s people need to be healthy!
That means, whatever sickness might come upon them, God was resident in them to heal their body.

You have The Healer in you!
Yes, you can go to the doctor who lives within you for healing. How do you release this power into your body? By saying words that are written in scripture!

“The Word of God is the sword of the Spirit” … when spoken in faith! (Ephesians 6:17)
“For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” (Hebrews 4:12)

“Death and life are in the power of the tongue”… your tongue!
When you believe in your heart and speak words of faith, they will become what the scripture says. After all, that is how you and I received salvation! (Romans 10:8-10)

Read the following scriptures out loud. Remember they first came forth out of God who cannot lie.
“For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen…” (2 Corinthians 1:20)

Healing is the Children’s Bread: Eat!
Healing is the children’s bread (Mt. 15:26). Healing is my bread.
Jesus, You took my infirmities. You bore my sicknesses (Mt. 8:17).
You carried my pains (Isaiah 53:4).
By Your stripes I am healed (Isaiah 53:5).

Christ has redeemed me from the curse of the law, having become a curse for me…so that the blessing of Abraham might come upon me… (Galatians 3:13-14)
The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. (Rom. 8:2)
The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead dwells in me. He who raised Christ from the dead will give life to my mortal body through His Spirit who dwells in me. (Romans 8:11) I receive that!

My words are life to you, and health/medicine to all your flesh (Pr. 4:22).

No plague shall come near my dwelling (Ps. 91:10).
I am strong and of good courage. I am not afraid. God is with me. (Joshua 1:9)
I do not worry. I cast all cares onto the Lord. (Mt. 6:31 & 1 Peter 5:7)
He gives (blessings) to His beloved in sleep. (Psalm 127:2)

Your light shall break forth as the morning and your health shall spring forth speedily (Isaiah 58:8).
I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds says the Lord (Jer.30:17).
I will satisfy you with long life (Ps. 91:16).
The years of your life shall be many (Pr. 4:10).

My joy is your strength. A merry heart does good like a medicine (Neh. 8:10; Pr.17:22).
The eyes of the blind shall be opened. The eyes of them that see shall not be dim. The ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. (Isaiah 32:3; 35:5).
With long life I will satisfy you and show you My salvation. (Ps. 91:16)

My faith works through love. (Galatians 5:6)

This is that …
“Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them. And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses. But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses.” (Mark 11:25-26)

Closing Comments
Saints, there’s another realm besides this materialistic world. The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead will raise anything in your life supernaturally. There’s a glory life that you can live … life in the Spirit.
Take the promises of God and "see" them by faith. See them first in the spirit ... where they do exist, just like God.

“… while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.” (2 Corinthians 4:18)

Abraham became the father of many nations before he was a father! (Romans 4:13-25)
Produce fruit for the Kingdom! Be well all your days!

The Call of Intercession

The Commission:
Jeremiah was called, meaning he was given an assignment even before he was born to operate as a prophet. A prophet is one who speaks on behalf of God to establish the Kingdom of God on this earth.

“Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me:
‘Behold, I have put My words in your mouth.
See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms,
To root out and to pull down,
To destroy and to throw down,
To build and to plant.’” (Jeremiah 1:9-10)

To be called means you are called by name and charged with an office or a specific work to accomplish. The importance of Jeremiah’s birth and his acceptance to do the will of God for his nation Israel was extremely important.

Likewise, intercessors are called as God puts forth His hand and touches their mouth to speak and decree words that root out, pull down, destroy, throw down but also to build and to plant His good will in the earth.

Now, let’s look deeper into true intercession, something God is calling multitudes of Christians to move into during these end times.

The 2020 Assignment: The Re-Election of President Trump
Prayer for this election is of vital importance for the continuance of our freedom of speech and the Gospel being preached in our nation and other nations. Just think of the effect our satellites have preaching the Gospel message 24/7 throughout the earth! This President must be re-elected for he not only upholds our Constitutional rights but firmly stands for our Christian rights and for protection of the unborn!!!

Intercession and Tongues
Prayer takes on a significant role when the person praying is filled with the Holy Spirit and speaks in tongues.

Tongues will take you from the natural carnal realm into where God’s Spirit dwells in your spirit. Jesus said, “out of his belly shall flow rivers of water.” When you hit those wells of living water, you are standing in the gap to change earthly circumstances by the authority of the Name of Jesus and the power of God operating within you. Angelic armies are in coalition with us.

This is how we establish God’s Kingdom on earth.

Jesus said, “ … I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” (Matthew 16:18-19)

What are those keys that unlock or lock up?
They are anointed words of authority coming forth out of your mouth. “Death and life are in the power of your tongue.” (Proverbs 18:21)

We could also say to The Church: Death and life are in the power of you praying in tongues!

Passing From One Realm to Another
As you begin praying in tongues, there is a pressing into the spirit realm that will begin to subdue thoughts that are focused on earthly circumstances and allow you to “take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ.”

This is where your tongues are anointed and productive in changing circumstances. “With God all things are possible!” Answers break through from the spirit realm to this earthly realm. Tongues will take you in!

The more you practice praying in tongues, personally or with others, the easier it is to jump in the river and flow with the Holy Spirit in power.

While there, revelations come, secrets become known, gifts are opened up, wisdom and knowledge are released, discerning of spirits, and interpretations of tongues. Interpretation of tongues is like a person who translates one language to another.

But for an Intercessor, much of the time tongues is a heavenly language that is kept private to protect secrets. During times of war messages are often sent by code. Why? It’s a form of communication that the enemy cannot decipher. That limits his plans greatly!

That is why he sowed the lie to the Body of Christ that “tongues are not for today.” Saints, praying in tongues are vitally important in the days we are living in!

This is that … which the power of intercession accomplishes!
“… the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.”

November 2020
Saints of God:
Fast and pray much in tongues for the voting in our nation to be done in order with truth and that there be peace in our cities after the election.

“The Anointing”
What is it?
The children of Israel wandering in the desert were given Manna, bread from Heaven, to eat every day. It only lasted one day and could not be stored up. The Word of God is “living Bread which came down from Heaven.” (John 6:51) It is planted into our hearts as we study. The soul, which is the mind, will, and emotions, is continually making contact with a fallen world; therefore, “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” (Romans 12:2) As the children of Israel could not store up Manna, neither is receiving God’s Word a one-time exercise. You eat food everyday so that you can live on this earth. The real you, a spirit born from above, needs Word food. “Give us this day our daily bread.” And remember healing is the children’s bread. Selah

Now, how does bread relate to the anointing?

Jesus Christ
Christ is not the Lord’s last name. The title Christ signifies “The Anointed One” or Messiah.
Definition of anoint: rubbing or pouring olive oil on someone to represent the flow (empowering) of the Holy Spirit.

To anoint is different than the anointing, “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good, and healing all who were oppressed by the devil; for God was with Him.” (Acts 10:38) Isaiah said, “And the yoke will be destroyed because of the anointing oil.” (Isaiah 10:27) The yoke refers to bondage.

Read Luke 4:18-19 and you will see exactly how the anointing destroys yokes. But notice that the first thing Jesus did was preach from God’s Word written in Isaiah Chapter 61. Why? So that faith would come. “Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God.” (Romans 10:17) Jesus, the Word made flesh, was dependent upon the written Word. Interesting isn’t it?

The Body of Christ: The Glorious Church
Jesus Christ moved to Heaven. But His Spirit resides on earth in every Believer. If you are born again and have been baptized in the Holy Spirit (see Acts 19:1-7) then you have the same anointing upon you to destroy yokes, not only on behalf of others but also for your own life.

The fullness of God’s anointing produces “life more abundantly.”

The Apostle John reveals the operation and impact of the anointing: believers are holy and separated to God. “But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things. But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.”
(See 1 John 2:20-27)

The anointing operates or remains alive in you as “you abide in Him.”

The secret to spiritual strength is the inner-man connection to the Spirit of God…through His Word. No deposit, no return. Like the children in the desert had to go and get the Manna each day, God’s Word waits for us to search out the scriptures to receive our nourishment which electrifies the anointing to destroy yokes.

How does a healthy diet produce a healthy athlete to run his race all the way to the finish line? It just does.

This is why the discipline of daily prayer and study is SO vital. What takes place here in private will be seen and felt by you and others the rest of your day! But beware of the thief! You will have to guard your heart about what you watch, what you hear, who you fellowship with, and what you are saying and thinking about during your day. Stay in the praise lane. You can feel a decline in your anointing by a loss of joy.

“You have loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your companions." (Hebrews 1:9)

You’re Not the Vine – You’re the Branch
But realize this; the vine cannot bear fruit, only the branch can bear fruit. Jesus is as much dependent upon His church for The Awakening/Revival as we are upon Him. “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.”

Do you see the results of going back into the world? Watch out because getting too close to the world will eventually lead to idolatry ... an exaltation of self that produces doubt over Jesus and His Word.

This is how faith crumbles and mountains don’t move.

“If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.” (John 15:5-7) “For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.” (Mark 11:23) A faith-filled intercessor has the power of the Sword of the Spirit in their in their mouth…

Praying in Tongues and The Anointing
Those who pray in tongues and stay in tongues experience the direct line into the heart of God. Jesus referred to this as a river, and everyone knows that when you jump into a river you get wet …“out of His heart will flow rivers of living water.” That’s the anointing! John the Baptist said, “… He (Jesus) will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.” That’s the anointing!

It abides inward then goes outward to manifest the Kingdom of God on earth. “…for in Him we live and move and have our being ...” (Acts 17:28)

This is that …
which Joel prophesied about the Day of Pentecost.
“And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh …” (Joel 2:28)

The Plot Thickens
What does this mean? This term is used when a situation is becoming more and more complicated and puzzling.

The contrast of those walking in the light and those living in darkness is becoming more and more obvious. What’s going on? Two things: Father is at work pulling His disobedient children out of worldliness before they are completely consumed by lies and evil and miss the rapture.

The end of the age is here and Jesus’ return in the air is soon. Father is also dealing with sinners.

Who Turned the Light Out?
“But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.”
(2 Corinthians 4:4-5)

Definition of Veil: to hide, to cover up, conceal, envelop, keep secret
A person who hears the gospel message being preached and thinks it is absurd nonsense cannot receive conviction of sin.

That’s because their conscience has been defiled, deeply stained by sin. They have been blinded by satan. They cannot SEE or comprehend what Jesus died to give them.

What’s surprising is even people who seemed to have had good sense in the past are being taken over, believing that lies are truth.

We are seeing the parable of the Tares and the Wheat take place before our eyes. See Matthew 13:36-43. That’s exciting because Jesus hints about the rapture in this passage.

As for sinners, intercession is required to pull them out! Remember, someone prayed you in!

July 2020
So get used to it, things are separating; it’s either black or white now so don’t get alarmed and run around sharing the next bizarre story.

The stage is being set for the tribulation.

“Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight!” (Isaiah 5:20-21)
“Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits.” (Daniel 11:32)

We were called to fulfill our purpose in this prophetic season written about in past ages in God’s Word. What a privilege!

1. The Shaking of all Nations: Hebrews 12:25-29
The virus, the rioting, bizarre behavior, lying news programs, anti-Christ Democrats, people who are under satanic dominion, the threat of socialism and the one world coalition, a Presidential election on the horizon … my goodness, “what now Lord?” Are we to withdraw in fear?

Absolutely not!!! We will be “more fervent still!” The Glorious Church is emerging with “healing in her wings” as the Kingdom of God is about to explode on earth in every nation!

“Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.” (Ephesians 3:20-21)

2. Intercession and Revival
Intercession lays track for God to move.

When He made man He gave man authority over all the earth. (Genesis 1:26-28) Although our mighty Father can do anything, He set it up that we are to ask anything in Jesus’ name, and He will do it.
“And I have put My words in your mouth;
I have covered you with the shadow of My hand,
That I may plant the heavens,
Lay the foundations of the earth,
And say to Zion, ‘You are My people.’ ” (Isaiah 51:16)

Speak with authority!
Intercessors have great power when they pray in the Holy Spirit. We tap into the river of life. Let’s jump in and let the current move us this way and that. He leads. We follow. This is how we pull down evil, how we plant the heavens, how revival comes and is birthed.

3. Preparation
*Simeon, a just and devout man, was waiting for the Consolation of Israel and the Holy Spirit was upon him when Jesus was brought to the Temple at eight days old. Simeon rejoiced and prophesied over the Holy Child.
*Anna the prophetess, who had not departed the temple for eighty-four years but served God with fastings and prayer night and day, came in at the same hour Simeon was holding Jesus giving thanks to God. She also gave thanks to the Lord and spoke of Jesus to all those that were there. (See Luke 2:25-38)
*We, The Body of Christ, are praying prayers of preparation for Jesus’ return in the air. But just before that great and awesome day, there must come the great awakening/revival in all the nations. We are now in its first stages of progress.

As this “gospel of the Kingdom of God” is being preached in all the nations, which must include signs, wonders, and miracles, it is breaking through demonic strongholds of lies and witchcraft in the heavenlies so that even the wicked lost can “HEAR” and understand what Jesus did on the cross and experience the overpowering love of God for them. This brings repentance of sin and total surrender of self so that they can be born again.

Intercession is vital!

This is that…which comes before the rapture!
“And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.” (Matthew 24:14)

The Glass

2020
Many prophetic words have come forth about this year. Some have made mention to 20/20 vision: that Believers will have spiritual insight, being able to SEE and understand what is taking place in the unseen realm, which affects the natural realm.

Now let’s pretend that you are sitting at a table and before you is a glass of water. The water line is in the middle of the glass. How do you SEE it? Is it half full? Or would you say no, the glass is half empty!

The Kingdom of God
Let’s look at some examples of how Believers SEE earthly circumstances and the results that follow.

Jesus’ Ministry … He didn’t SEE sickness and disease; He saw the multitudes healed! “Then great multitudes came to Him, having with them the lame, blind, mute, maimed, and many others; and they laid them down at Jesus’ feet, and He healed them.” (Matthew 15:30)

If Jesus was focused on the horrible conditions of the “great multitudes” He would not have had faith to heal. “Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner.” (John 5:19)

This is very important for The Church to remember. To walk and live in the Spirit, Galatians 5:25, we must go inward and SEE what God says. Jesus desires His Body to do the greater works! (John 14:12)

Elisha and his servant…The King of Syria was making war with Israel. “When the servant of the man of God got up and went out early the next morning, an army with horses and chariots had surrounded the city. “Oh no, my lord! What shall we do?” the servant asked.

“Don’t be afraid,” the prophet answered. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. As the enemy came down toward him, Elisha prayed to the Lord, “Strike this army with blindness.” So He struck them with blindness, as Elisha had asked.” (2 Kings 6:15-20) Elisha had NO fear because he was in the Spirit and saw the armies of the Lord encamped about them.

You also have mighty angels beside you.
“The angel of the Lord encamps all around those who fear Him, and delivers them.” (Psalm 34:7 and also Psalm 91:9-13) SEE that!

The Twelve Spies… God told Moses to send out one leader from each tribe to spy out the land that God was giving them. Ten leaders said they could not take the land. “… the people are too strong, the cities are fortified, and the giants live there.” Caleb and Joshua saw the same circumstances but believed what God said. They replied, “Let us go up at once and take possession, for we are well able to overcome it.”

Faith is bold and takes possession of what God has promised.

Sadly, the ten leaders transferred their fear and unbelief to two million people who then wept all night. They spoke what they saw in their hearts: “... we will fall by the sword!” (Numbers Chapter 13 & 14)

Secrets of The Kingdom of God
You cannot speak boldly what you cannot SEE.
Faith in God/His Word produces vision and boldness in the inner man.
If you can't SEE it it is because you are in doubt/fear.
Faith requirement: meditate on His promise day and night. (Joshua 1:8-9)
Satan desires to steal all traces of the Word of God from you, The Church, and the earth!
Satan’s job is to limit and keep you in your mind and natural senses. “This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic. (James 3:15)
Your Kingdom inheritance comes in proportion to your knowledge and acting on who God says you are.
You must know/SEE who you are…in Christ!
We are written epistles! (2 Corinthians 3:2-3)
Holy Spirit is waiting for your faith-filled words…words that carry what you SEE, whatsoever you desire.
Grace Knowledge or Revelation Knowledge comes from the Father so we can act on it.
Job said, “For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me.” Job saw it inside first…
Abraham did not see his aged body, but believed that what God had promised He was able also to perform. (Romans 4:21) He saw himself the "father of many nations!"
You have to SEE it before you can speak it. The “abundant life” is in you.
Jesus endured the cross, by looking at “the joy that was set before Him.” (Hebrews 12:2) Jesus SAW His resurrection. Jesus saw you and me born again!
You control your world. Say to the mountain … Mark 11:22-23
Difficult times are here but “Faith is the VICTORY that overcomes the world.” (1 John 5:4) But faith requires you SEE the end result before you speak it! (Mark 11:23)
God saw these “perilous times” before the foundation of the world and ordained that you and I would be born in this time to establish His Word and His Kingdom: to bring in the lost before Jesus’ return in the air! Can you SEE that?

Is the glass half empty?
Are you negative and without hope? You don’t know who you are in Christ or the power of the Holy Spirit within you. Turn off the News and get in the Word of God! Your hopelessness infects The Body. (Ephesians 4:14-32)

Do you see the glass half full?
Caleb and Joshua SAW God with them and released their faith! “Let us go up at once and take possession, for we are well able to overcome it.” How you SEE is a reflection of what you’re seeing, hearing, and thinking about day and night!

When Caleb and Joshua were spying out the land they must have been so excited, “This good land belongs to us!

This is That … The Kingdom of God
“…on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” (Matthew 16:18-19)
God will not do what He told YOU to do first!

Take the land, Saints.
The Power of Intercession must go out first… and we have an election to take now for this President and for our great nation!
