Greetings from
I want to thank all of you who have taken the time to telephone me and write me, either by snail mail or email. I am delighted to hear all that the dear Lord is doing in and through each one of you, especially those of you who are seniors. And if you blessed my heart that much, I can only imagine how you must be blessing the heart of our Father. Hallelujah!
The Lord has been opening many doors
for me in Central and
The Lord has asked me to share in
this newsletter a Word which came forth in
“Yet be aware that not all who readily respond are equipped for the task. Have you truly understood the difficulty of such a calling; have you soberly counted the cost? Do not be in haste, but first be still and hear the voice of your God, and be certain as to what I ask of each one of you; for it is a holy and costly calling.”
“It is a time to work, while it is yet light: the darkness when no man can work is now not far off. Some will hear the sound of the trumpet of warning and respond; but many will pay no heed. You will grieve, but your concern must be only to do My will, and declare My Truth, whether they will hear it or not.”
“Do not fear Islam, terrible though
it is; but be aware that your greatest enemies will be those, some even in the
professing Church, whose purpose is to establish the New World Order, and the
spirit which stands behind them. This is the spirit of
“That New World Order will not be Islamic in nature, but purely satanic. It will have an outward appearance, not of bloodthirstiness, but of apparent good and benevolence. It will appear loving and peaceful, having the apparent outward character of a harmless lamb; but it will speak and act as a dragon to crush all opposition.”
“Beloved, be sure that you stand strong in Me, and fully alert to deception. The message of the watchmen, who exposes the workings of Satan, will surely bring great hatred upon the messenger.”
“Therefore, if you will truly walk with Me, as MY watchmen, be prepared to let Me deal with your hearts at the deepest level. The refiner’s fire will seem hot, but for My Glory, and your safety, it must achieve its work in you.”
“Those who stand with
My chosen representative nation,
“She is hated not for herself, but
because of Me. She has even now entered into the pains of
labour which will finally bring forth My
second coming in judgment, and the kingdom of darkness will resist to the
uttermost limits of its power and fury. The suffering will be great, but
“Therefore, Beloved, examine your hearts, and count the cost, for in your hearts you must be able to say with settled conviction, “I have been called to the Kingdom for such a time as this; therefore I will speak the Word of warning, and stand shoulder to shoulder with Israel, the apple of God’s eye, and if I perish, I perish,”
“If you are willing to walk this
path as a Watchmen for your God, then I must and will
purify the motives of your heart. To speak out of your love for

Many of you have shared with me how very tired you are of waiting. You are anxious and impatient to move out with the Lord. Please know, though, that there is a growth that is taking place within your spirit. The Lord is developing within you the ability to receive His grace in larger quantities. As you’ve been waiting, He has been enlarging your capacity, your grasp, your faith, and your knowledge. He’s been expanding you through trials and adversities. In short, He has been preparing you, conditioning you, training you, and disciplining you, that you might be ready when it is time for you to be sent forth. He has also been showing you many things, and developing longsuffering and patience within you. By the time that He is finished, He will have brought you in to His rest.
Meanwhile, encourage yourself in the Lord as David did. “Wait on the Lord, be of good courage, and He will strengthen your heart! Wait I say upon the Lord.” Isaiah 40:31 says, “Those who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not grow weary, they shall walk and not faint.”
When we speak of waiting upon the Lord, as He is preparing us, let’s think about Elijah. After he obeyed the Lord, and delivered God’s message to King Ahab, the Lord told him that He was going to hide him away at the Brook Cherith. This would be a safe place for Elijah, but also a place where he would have to become totally dependent upon the Lord for protection and provision.
When we stay where He puts us, and do as He directs us, He then obligates Himself to sustain us. So it is important for each one of us to know where He wants us to be, and when we know where we are to be, to stay there until He releases us. We must learn to wait on Him for further orders. And know that when we are ready to be moved out, He will give us that word.
Elijah stayed by the brook, and
watched it slowly dry up. I can only imagine what kind of thoughts went through
Elijah’s mind as he watched and waited, but he was not about to move from the
brook until the Lord said to move. Finally the order came! He was told to go to
Zarephath, which means ‘refining’ or ‘smelting
furnace’. The purpose of sending him there was to use that place to remove the
dross of pride, or any tendency to self-reliance or independent action apart
from God. You see, the Lord was preparing a cleansed vessel for the next step in
His plan of deliverance and cleansing for
Elijah was emptied of self during that long period of three and a half years of drought, and waiting upon God. His experiences at both the brook, and then at Zarephath, taught him that he could do nothing of himself. He couldn’t even provide food or water for himself. He had to depend totally upon God’s provision.
I believe that it was in proportion
to his being emptied of self, self sufficiency, and self dependence that he was
filled with the power of the Holy Spirit. We can see that while Elijah was
waiting on God’s time to deal in a very specific way with
Joseph was another example. He was
sold as a slave in to
I’m sure that Joseph had mixed emotions throughout this time, and even felt as though he had been forgotten, but God was training him for greater things and He needed this time with Joseph. At the right time, (God’s perfect time), Joseph was released from prison to become Prime Minister of Egypt, and the preserver of his own people.
We can’t forget Moses either. He
became a great man as the son of Pharoh’s daughter.
He was in a position to become ruler of
God melted and molded these men in the hidden away places. He drew them unto Himself, prepared them, filled them, anointed them, and when they were ready, He sent them forth. And He is doing the very same thing today with those He is calling. It is His desire to bring each one in to some type of a desert experience with Himself. There He will be free, and have the time needed, to set each one free and bring the healing that is needed, (body, soul, and spirit). Then when He has finished His work, He can send each one forth in strength and power. And after they are set gloriously free, they will go forth speaking nothing but the simple truths of Jesus, and carrying nothing but the Blood stained banner of our Lord Jesus Christ. Then, He and He alone will get the glory for the ministers each one becomes. Hallelujah! Is He awesome or what?

Now, on the other hand, I am so thrilled to see so many of you beginning to move out in to your calling. You have waited and waited, and now you are being released. All I can say to you is, “Go for it!” Go in the anointing that the Lord has placed upon you! Go in the strength and power of His Spirit! You are a unique individual with a unique calling. Be a God pleaser, not a man pleaser, and His favor will rest upon you. Never compromise your position in Him for anyone, or anything, and He will do battle for you! He will move mountains for you.
At this time He is imparting to many of us an anointing for war. It is an anointing to do battle for His Kingdom. We must know who we are in Him! We must be bold, be strong, and fear not! The Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Heaven, is with us! He will give us the strategies needed! He will go before us to make the way, He will stand with us in the heat of the battle, and He will cover us from behind! Let us praise His Holy Name for the precious blood that covers us!
It is my prayer that each one of us will bring great glory to His Holy Name, and further His Kingdom here on earth. It is also my prayer that each and every one of us will always walk worthy of the calling that He has placed upon us, for it truly is a holy calling.
“Oh God, our Lord, the strength of our salvation, You cover our head in the day of battle!”
A Fierce Storm is on the Horizon!
“Be still and know that I AM God! Know that I have called you, and I will sustain you, every step of the way. When you walk through the fire, and when you walk through the rain, I will be with you. Once you have sought My face, remain still and silent and wait upon Me. I will speak to your heart My will for your lives. Remain still and wait, and I will fill you with the wisdom and knowledge that you will need as you prepare for what is ahead.”
“For, yes, there is a storm on the horizon, and it is a fierce one, but I will enable you to stand bold, with head set like flint, against the evil one. Do not look at the intensity of the storm, but look to Me for I AM the one in control, and not the evil one. What He means to bring harm, I always turn to your good. Yes, remain still and quiet so you can hear My still small voice.”
“Remain in My secret place, and I will keep you safe from the storm! I AM your refuge, and your strength, a very present help in trouble. Draw close to Me, my little ones! Never run away in panic! Remain still and watch what I will do on your behalf, for I have you safe in the palm of My hand. Yes, I will shelter you from the storm. I will even keep you safe in the eye of it as it passes over.”
“For all things work together for your good, and you need to know that no matter what comes your way, I will shelter you from all harm. For I allow the wind and the waves to prepare you, and strengthen you in your faith, if you allow Me to do My perfecting work in you through them. Yes, remain still and quiet, and watch what I will do.”
“Even though you do not see a way out of the adverse circumstances that the enemy is using to come against you, just know that I AM faithful to deliver you through them. Know that it is all in My perfect timing that I will set you free, and not a moment after. For I keep you in the fire to purge the dross. I keep you in longer than you think you are able to bear, for I AM stretching you in your faithfulness to trust Me, no matter what you see in the natural.”
“Trust in My heart of love for you,
even when you don’t understand what I allow, for that is My
hand towards you. For I only allow what is good and beneficial for you. For you
need strong faith to prepare for what is ahead, and each trial that you go
through is strengthening you. So I encourage you to remain still and quiet
before Me, no matter what you see or hear, for I have warned you that there is a
storm on the horizon, but it is I who is in control, not the evil one, says your
God!”

“I AM building My Church, says the Lord, and I will set the foundation through divine encounters and divine connections. No longer will man put things and people together, and say that I have built the house. Now I will, through divine encounters, begin to divinely connect My Body in such a way that no man will glory, and no man will promote others or themselves. Many have been, and will yet be, repositioned for My purposes. Now My plan will begin to unfold, and My purpose for these moves will also unfold. I AM connecting many teams together, with different anointings and callings, and as they minister together, they will flow as one. A new day has dawned, and I am bringing forth and connecting My sons and daughters.”
