My first stadium prophecy

It’s the weekend of prayer for Lancaster County and it was held at Clipper Magazine Stadium. I was wondering what it was going to be like and even if they would know about the Spirit. It was a blessing. I went to the dugout where the intercessors were, where I wasn’t supposed to be. I met Erica and she prayed over me and said I would make connections here and there was a word that needed to go forth. Yeahh okay that’s nice to hear but I don’t feel “in the mood”. The Lord reminded me that I am a prophet to the nations. Okay God well if you want me to speak then you gotta speak to me.

The Lord gave me a vision. I saw Him take His mighty hands under the city, the county, and lift it up. The roots in the dirt were hanging down and there was a shaking. Some tall structures stood and others collapsed. God said he was uprooting and those without a true foundation and that of a false religion would parish. God is destroying so He can build again on a foundation that is incorruptible. Then I saw the people of the existing structures build the ruined church to be strong. God said those who know God will stand and will not be shaken but church, stand firm and see the salvation of the Lord. They will be the ones who rebuild the ruins, block by block. Then He had me prophesy that Lancaster, there is no spot in you. Bride arise, bride arise. You are beautiful in my sight. I am taking the church, the bride higher, yet deeper into His heart. Laid down lovers. There is no spot in you, there is no spot in you.

So somehow I ended up on stage with the mic speaking this forth. There was no time to be afraid. I told God that if He gave me words I would speak. It was beautiful, there was no fear. It was something I was to do. The Lord reminded me of Jeremiah 1:9-10 before speaking.

“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.”

I was so under the Spirit walking off I was trying not to manifest yet when that word went forth something in the air broke. Then these ladies in dugout became completely wild and your spirit broke forth and the new wine was released. We got so wasted and prayed and prophesied over each other. Oh God. The ladies me and Shannon met were older yet so wise. The young and the old coming together. The ladies had me and Shannon pray for many, many people. Wow by the end I was so tired and poured out! I really need endurance since this is a life style. Thank you Jesus, you have truly blessed me. Thank you for using me, your vessel, your bride.

Unable to count the stars

"...I will multiply your descendant as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of I give to your descendants, and they shall inherit it forever." Exodus 32:13

I was just given my grandmother's star sapphire ring the other week. It signifies those promises the Lord has given to me, destiny. Just as God told Abraham this amazing promise, it was huge, too big to be true, yet Sarah was still barren. How hard it must have been to embrace a promise when the current atmosphere reflected nothing of the like. This represents the lives and my children, God's children, those God will use me to come into the kingdom, those that number the stars. The Lord gave me revelation the other day with putting it every day. I knew that a ring symbolized a covenant. This ring is a covenant between me and God and every day when I put it on I accept, believe, and carry the promise of God to bring salvation to nations. Keep looking at the stars and dream.

I had a dream last night. I'm kinda excited I dreamed because I haven't been really dreaming prophetically for the past few months. I know these dreams are now here to stay.

I dreamt I lost my ring. I found it at the bottom of a trash bag and rejoiced as I saw it because it must have slipped off. When I put it on there were two more of the same rings that appeared on my finger, totaling three. The number three has been everywhere in my life. God is telling me that when you dare to dream and have faith for the promise of the one ring I will give you more! Whoa God. I'm picking up my ring and will not doubt and loose it again. I am worthy and qualified to do all that You have put forth before me because Christ is in me, the hope of glory! Multiply, multiply, multiply!

The second half of the dream I am still seeking revelation on. It was snowing and a lot of people were going to the top of the hill. I admired the beautiful snow fall and praised the beauty of God for it as this rest fell upon me. As I was climbing the hill, I was so thankful I was wearing my black healed boots (even though they are not equip for snow) because I was climbing and not slipping. Everyone behind me was so tired from the climb up the hill but I knew that as long as I had my footing everything would be fine. Someone said, do not look down, I did, then I tripped and fell. When I got to the top this school bus was falling down the hill. It was funny and we were all having fun with it. I was attached by my lanyard to the school bus and it dragged me down the hill gently with the icy snow covering. Me and three friends were just laughing and having a great time.

I have some revelation to this but not much. I do struggle sometimes with liking teaching, where last year I did not at all. I know I'm in a new school district and am still fitting in with rules and getting to know all the teachers. School is my ministry now and God please give me a greater heart for it because I just want to go out and change the world now. But the world is in my classroom. The futures of 105 lives plus many teachers I hold in my hands. What a beautiful destiny. Thank you Jesus.

A Persevering Peoples

So much has happened and I can only begin to put into words and decipher what I am feeling. I wonder how did I ever get on the ground? What happened? All the sudden I was depressed with what seemed to be no where out. The healing process seems so long, yet I see the light.

You are teaching me about perseverance. I don't think I ever had to persevere like this before. I've done it physically but this is a day by day thing. I know you are getting the ups and downs out of me that are so costly for the Kingdom. The ups and downs are from the desert! The wilderness! How the Israelites loved God then worshipped an idol and did not trust God to supply all they needed; the orphan spirit.

But why go up and down? Pride. Thinking I can do it on my own, thinking I can go even a a day without the Word or praying from only a few minutes in the car on the way to school is suffice.

This destiny before me is so great. So great for a little girl like me. How Lord? How will it ever come to pass. If it's too big for me then I know it's from God. That comforts me.

"And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope. Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us." Romans 5:3-5

Brushstrokes from the Bride

I created another blog that is called "Brushstrokes from the Bride." I love to paint and I believe God is moving me into prophetic painting as another act of worship in my life. I tried to add revelation that God was speaking to be with each painting. I paint every Sunday as I rest in the Lord's presence. I'm new at this and hearing and moving with the Holy Spirit in this type of way :)

Scribbles from Pemba

There have been so many messages from the hearts of friends, speakers, and of God that have changed my life. There are pages that could go behind each thought but I want to share with you a glimpse of the Glory that was caught in Mozambique.

"They desired only that we should remember the poor, the very thing which I also was eager to do." Galatians 2:10

"Since you were precious in My sight, you have been honored. And I have loved you..." Isaiah 43:4

Revival starts with the poor

Religion and culture are together
Bless, bless, bless instead of curse
Contextualize the gospel
Love looks like something
Poor in spirit
Give, give, give
When God says go, Go!
Covenant to be fearless
I don't care how you feel, know who you are in Christ
God is Greater
It's all about relationships
Incarnational love
Stop for the one
You are the pure and spotless bride
Isaiah 61
Jesus fill me with your love
Freely you have received, freely give (Matt 10:8)
Confidence in Christ
Don't compromise
Fear is the root of unbelief
Obedience
Emilie, do you trust me?
Love heals
Forerunner
Love the church
Seeing Jesus in all
The Father's love
Seek things that are pure
"That the Lamb who was slain would receive the reward for His suffering"
Belief is what makes prayer work
"To the Jew he became a Jew, to the Gentile he became a Gentile, ... gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some"
Be yourself, you are an original
Your life is the Message
Desperation moves the heart of God
There is always enough

Heart for Harrisburg

Lord, forgive us as a church for not seeing the poor. How we have been wrapped into the love of prosperity and not the true heart of God. We cry out for revival and forget where revival begins, the poor, the orphaned, the desolate, the no bodies. Forgive us Lord for forgetting the poor. We can give money and seasonal goods but you want us to know them; their stories, their sadness, their laugh, and their hearts. When will we we contend for your loved ones that make your heart bleed with sadness?! As much as we cry Isaiah 58 we don't understand it. We fast and pray our guts out and miss your heart.

"Is it not to share your bread with the hungry and that you bring to your house the poor who are cast out; when you see the naked, that you cover him... THEN your light shall break forth... IF you extend your soul to the hungry and satisfy the affliced soul, THEN your light shall dawn in the darkness..."

Let's not over spiritualize this like we tend to do with healing and other miracles and workings and calls of obedience of God.

I am a pioneer of the gospel, the true gospel, to love the poor and not only our neighbor who sits right next to us. Our neighbor is not only the person next to us, our best friend, our co-worker, but those who are broken, dirty, orphaned. Do you see Me in them? Do you see? Love doesn't have boundaries. Let us go! Forgive us for keeping church in the four walls and not extending our hands. How selfish we have been not to see You. Change us Father. God use me to stir the church of your heart for yourfavorites. You make the drunk, users and abusers in Your image yet we have not seen as we wouldn't allow ourselves to become vulnerable, bruised and broken like they are. We missed it.

Lord we missed it. Yet we have carried the spirit of poverty because we have not made ourselves to come to you to become poor in spirit. Truely the rich are poor and the poor are rich in spirit. Change us Lord. Let us extend our hands and hearts to your beloved. I lose my life to gain everything. Love looks like something.

I have been praying for an open door into Harrisburg, a city that I do not even know. I ate lunch at the Atlantic Bread Company on Friday and my heart deepend for this 50ish year old back man working on his computer. God wanted me to pour His heart over him. After pushing fear away I went. He was like, "I receive that I recieve that," in his big loud joyful voice. Turns out he is a pastor in Harrisburg. He pointed me to a man who is involved in intercity tent ministry from Mon-Fri every week. Wow God! The results of our obedience. I could have totally missed that opportunity because fear could have overtaken me.

Love is so much greater than fear.

I have a meeting with this pastor this thursday in Harrisburg. I'm excited... just the first step in revival. My heart is so hungry to minister and go, go, go. Sometimes God wants us to wait but sometimes into order to continue to grow He says GO! My feet cannot stop moving, my voice can't stop proclaiming, and my heart can't stop loving.
