The Other side of the Door by Linda Patterson

The Other Side of the Door – 2016 by Linda Patterson

In a vision, I saw a door starting to open in the spirit with 2016 engraved on it. As this door was opening, I saw a throng of people moving towards the door. They were God's Remnant people, His end-time army advancing forward. There were people running, sprinting; I saw others limping towards this door; still others were on their knees and they were crawling desperate to make it through.

Some of these, chosen of God, were pressing forward with hope, with a glint in their eye that on the other side of the door they would find destiny. They were clinging to a vision of times past, a promise that had been written on their heart. Others were striding confidently, believing that as they crossed the threshold it would be a year of smooth sailing for them. Many moved with purpose, confident that on the other side of the door, a great breakthrough awaited them.

I heard the Lord say, "Yes, My beloved, a season of change awaits you as you cross

the threshold, for truly you will see the fulfillment of many promises I have given. Breakthrough and acceleration belong to those who have been faithful and true to Me, My Word and their calling.

My Beloved, you know that through the dark days and the troubled times of the past, I had never left your side. Prepare, for even in this season that you are entering into the strong winds will blow as storms arise. 

Look up, for there is yet another door in the heavens for you to go through. I am calling you to come up here, My beloved, for this will be your place of retreat and safety. It is here that I hold you tightly, and I shield you from the coming storm, I cover you in My glory, for you are Mine and I am yours.”

Isaiah 60: 1-2

"Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee."

Song of Solomon 7:10

"I am my beloved's, and his desire is toward me."

2016 PART TWO PHYLLIS FORD

Prophetic Insights: We are seeing everything that has built up in 2015 come to a complete tipping point. For the bowls of prayer petitions and decrees have come before the Lord and the Lord is about to move upon the behalf of His people.  The events, even the test and trials that were experienced during this phase have been the ground for that which the Lord is establishing now. His Words: The Lord is saying, "For now the dry ground is about to become your watered garden. Your proving ground is about to become your breeding ground. For I am clearing the ground and I am cleansing the ground. I am planting in this season of your life and you shall see it and you will taste it's harvest. For I am rebuilding upon you in this hour, so that you may walk in my abundant life." "So prepare your heart in this hour to receive this new planting. Allow the weeds of the past to be pulled up. Let my words become new life and strength to you now. Come away from all that has tried to taint and pollute your fields and receive a new refreshing. For now is a re-digging of wells and the ground is being prepared and new seedlings are being planted. Great life shall spring forth in this hour for those who are hungry and are ready for this new time of awakening." "Now there will be a turning over of the soil and the seeds will be planted deep within. There will be great growth and behold the bumper crop season will take place. As quickly as it is planted so shall it also come forth. The harvest will be like nothing you have seen in times past. For this is a part of the accelerated course that has come upon the land, and there will be rapid growth in this season." The Lord let me know that 2016 is a time where we will not be overlooked. For even in this month there will be opportunity to grasp, to redeem time, and to move forward onto new ground. If we allow this window of time to go by playing last years games we will watch everyone quickly pass us by and we will wonder where the time went. That which some of us tried to cover and hide will be exposed before all. (He gave me key words and they were as follows. These are not new concepts but the emphasis on these things will begin in January and continue to carry forth throughout the year.) Kingdom Convergence: This will be a joining of giftings, callings, and anointings that the Lord will gather in this hour for optimum results. It will be about kingdom minded people joining together to bring about radical change. We will see a cross-pollination of people from various nationalities, regions, and background. These will be a fierce group of kingdom people who will be fearless and focused on getting the job done. There will be a converging within the church structure and groups specializing in particular areas for the purpose of having a greater impact and influence upon kingdom expansion and growth. Many streams will gather and begin to flow together. There will be a blending as God's people as they unify to do greater works. Tipping Point: Watch how when the efforts of many move together a tsunami wave of momentum is created having much impact. It will begin in January and go throughout the year. You will see people connecting people, purpose, time, and energy along with great moves of God's glory touching others on new levels. There will be those who will be carriers of the glory realm coming together. The bowls of the prayers of the saints will be tipped over taking others into greater realms of prayer movements. Prophetic voices, priestly sounds of worship, and Apostolic words of sound doctrine will purge and purify those coming out of deceptions bringing them into great deliverance. Breaking Ground: I had a vision of ground breaking ceremonies (which included ribbon cuttings). The Lord said that all the Heavens would rejoice over the new ground breaking forth in the spirit realm. There is a fresh new boldness coming upon the land that is liken unto when Caleb went forth to take new ground. There will be new fresh revelation in the area of spiritual warfare that will break new ground as well. Old battles will be finally be dealt with and old generational curses will be broken with fresh new victories. Beautiful People: I had a dream where I saw a group of people arising out of the ashes of the pain of the past and they were coming forth as lights. There was such a beauty upon their countenance. I inquired of the Lord and a few days later He said, "I am taking a people who have come out of the ugliness of experiences and bringing them forth as a beautiful people. For those who will come out of drug addiction, alcoholism, mental oppression, and emotional struggles will be made whole and new. They will see things in a new way and in a new light. For their past will be overcome by my love towards them." I saw among them young people who came in groups, and they looked like clusters of light. I saw some of which were previously looked upon as dangerous, but have since been changed by the presence of the Lord, and they were lead by other saints who have had similar experiences. Reformation Winds & Heavenly Centrifuge: I had a vision of a whirlwind. It turned in a circular motion and as it turned in great speed the furniture in the room was literally hurled around. All of a sudden it stopped and once it did everything was laid in order. The Lord said He was about to set things in order ushering in a Apostolic and Prophetic order that will change churches and even house meetings. People will be gathering together with a hunger for His presence and hearts crying out for transformation and it will take place in the house both apostolically and prophetically. In many ways God will see to it that things fall into their proper place. Wealthy Place: There will be a transition for those who have been in heavenly places with the Lord into a prepared place of abundance. This abundance will produce wealth vehicles that will come forth to strengthen and catapult the kingdom work into a sound place emotionally, financially, physically, and mentally. A soundness and restoration will begin to come upon the people of God. We will see transfers of wealth and finances that have been previously promised and now will be currently manifested in the lives of God's people. Exposures of Wickedness: At the very on set of this New Year we will see an uncovering of wickedness. The Lord will uproot and uncover the lies of the enemy. Infiltration and hidden alliances will be uncovered from with in the government and different organizations. From CEO's to Presidential candidates with strange bedfellows, all will be uncovered due to their refusal to change. The crossover into 2016 will hold heavy consequences and many who have been warned will see that God is not playing with them. Great Grace: We all know that where sin doth abound, grace also abounds. The Father's heart and those He will raise up in this hour with great compassion will be there to catch many in a new net of Love and forgiveness. This will mark a season of leadership with great humility that will through love literally usher a people into the gates of the Kingdom like never before. Weighty Gates: As we enter this new chapter of righteousness we cross a line of demarcation. This opens a weighty gate where the weightier matters are accessed and balanced with God's divine timing for fulfillment in order. A great wisdom will be unlocked and this wisdom will lead and direct us through uncharted waters of which we have never traveled. We will know what to do and how to do it during this time. Some didn't have the grace to cross over into 2016 and we must be grateful. We must also understand that we have been given access. The access we have been given carries with it a wisdom. Wisdom in this hour will be a principal thing and the fear of the Lord will make it's mark at the beginning of this New Year.   His Words: An Umbrella of Glory: "For my people shall receive great healing and deliverance under the umbrella of my glory. For my glory shall fall and my people shall hear the words that I am speaking to them. They shall hear individually and collectively as the words are released under that canopy of my anointing. They will hear my words of healing and cleansing. Major yokes shall be broken. The people shall be transformed. For this is the time that my people shall be set free. For no longer will they come under the umbrella of my glory, my anointing, nor my power and leave the same. I shall loose a lasting change and transformation upon them like a fire. For this is the hour of deliverance and my people will come out of darkness and walk in my light. For it will be my power on the people and my majesty will extend upon them." ©copyright 2015 by Phyllis Ford Ministries

Unfurling Love by Priscilla Van Sutphin

Unfurling Love" 
Dec.23rd, 2015 

An old hymn was going through my mind. There is love vast 
as the ocean, were the words. The still small voice said 
'unfurling love'. " I am coming on the wings of the cold 
winter wind, and I am blowing on my garden of reknown. I am 
blowing a cool Northern wind that will replenish My people, 
and destroy the bondages. 
And as this wind blows, another right behind it, from the 
south, just as one storm follows another. This Kingdom wind 
will blow despite all the violence in the world, and 
overtake those who are mine, and those 
Who are called elect. 

As it is unfurled, your hearts will be revived, and 
replenished with hope and love to the degree, you will once 
again find worship easy, and flowing with it, My presence 
will overtake you and transform you, no matter how much you 
have gone through, no matter how many mistakes you feel 
you've made, because My grace is greater than all the 
opposition that has surrounded and even overcome many. 

The Spirit of Elijah is being loosed, and families will be 
transformed. Grown children will forgive and be drawn back 
into your arms, and also into My arms. I am a good Father, 
who gives good gifts to My children. Thus will I restore, 
and restore, and restore many many hearts this Christmas 
and in the new year. It has actually already begun in small 
circles, but the ripples will cause an outpouring that will 
overtake neighborhoods, towns, cities, and 
provinces/counties all over the world. 

This is NOT just a fading wind of My Spirit. It is MY 
KINGDOM WIND, and it will not be abated, for I have a 
harvest to reap, before the great and terrible day of the 
Lord that will come beyond it. The earth will be covered 
with the knowledge of the Lord from sea to shining sea.  
The strongholds that have been so hard to break in the past 
will fall down. Just as Gideon tore down the statue in the 
darkness of night, will My Gideons destroy the enemy forces 
that have brought darkness to this world. Many angelic 
hosts have been being loosed, and now even more to contend 
with that which has been opposing and contending with you. 

Why do the nations rage and the people plot vain things I 
have said? They think I will do nothing. The enemy has been 
wearing down the saints, but I have a great resuscitation 
in mind. And My will is above anything he can do. He has an 
end times army, but I have angels I have reserved for the 
day of MY POWER as well. They are now being loosed to bring 
My Kingdom to the earth and startling and amazing miracles 
will abound. 

Do not think that there is anyone I cannot touch. But know 
that you need to depend on ME, for who to speak to, who to 
pray with, who to touch. BE VERY DEPENDENT on Me. Ask Me, 
and you will hear My voice behind you, saying do this, or 
do that, for I AM EMMANUEL, God with you. Follow My lead 
beloveds. This is not a time to be independent. Be 
dependent, like a child on your heavenly Father, listen for 
My lead. You will avoid many traps of the enemy that he has 
planned if you will be MORE dependent on Me. I know his 
"end times game plan". I know every strategy. So go into 
your closet and seek My face, and I will release to you all 
you need to know. 

I have many conduits of My grace I am loosing in this hour 
who have endured great discomforts, pain and shaming, 
rejection and cruelties, whom I will use to subdue the 
proud and arrogant in heart. You cannot be defensive and 
prideful if you want to be in this army. I AM YOUR DEFENSE.  
I AM YOUR MA GEE NEE! I AM YOUR STRONG TOWER. RUN TO ME, 
and I will supply your every need. Do NOT think to squander 
blessings on selfish gain because I am correcting that 
characteristic in others who've gone before you as I come.  
You will have all you need to do what I've given you to do.  
But the abundance I pour out is to bless others beaten 
down, and not just yourselves. I will remove the 
candlestick for those who refuse to care for the poor 
around them, yet take in tithes and offerings, without 
using them for those in need. 

Behold I do a NEW THING, it will spring forth suddenly! You 
will look back in wonder at what I have done. Rejoice NOW, 
REJOICE even in your sufferings, and rejoice in all 
circumstances to quench the drone of the enemy's taunts and 
harrassment. Realize that I AM LOVE, and I will love you 
forever. I will now ARISE and nothing will be the same.  
Darkness is arising, but My Light in you will drive back 
darkness! Ask and you will receive, knock and the door 
will be opened. My manifest love will overtake you and 
every chain you have tried to loose on your own, will be 
broken and your soul will find it's rest in ME." 


Blessings & Hugs, Priscilla

Your Life is about too be Resurrected by Lonnie Mackley

Posted: 12/22/2015 at 3:32pm | IP Logged "Your Life Is About to Be Resurrected"  by Lonnie Mackley Dec. 22nd, 2015 There are many people right now who are at a place of extreme weariness and inability where you feel like you cannot take even one more step forward, or you will collapse in a heap for good. You have endured so much heartbreak and pain over the years and especially recently that life has lost its meaning and you are torn between wanting to go home to be with Jesus, or staying here for the few people that love and need you here. The Lord wants you to know today that at the utter end of your ability, His ability will now arise and quicken you in such a way that you will feel completely new again. The devil may have been trying to tell you that it's over now, but just like Jesus rising from the dead, your life will be resurrected by God Himself, and even you will be amazed by what He does. God wants you to know that healing is on the way now, and it won’t just be a little healing; it will be healing of everything physically and emotionally that you have had to endure for so long. So though you have had to carry a load of sorrow and burdens with you all of your life, Jesus is about to take that load off of you, and this will be so new and wonderful because you have always been limited by the pain of what’s happened. This is your year of liberation and Jubilee from the Lord, and instead of crying tears of grief, you will cry tears of joy as you dance around your house and go out the door to shout to the neighbors about the goodness of God in your life. Much that has been supposedly lost for good will now be miraculously restored by God’s hand Himself. He has heard every prayer. Jesus knows the tremendous sorrow and suffering that you have endured for so long, but this has all been part of a plan that is meant to bring you to a new place of true holiness and oneness with the Father Himself that will last forever. Your heart may feel too crushed and broken right now to believe anymore, but I would encourage you to believe in the love and goodness of the same God that sought you out and saved you in the first place. Did you really think that He would just run off and abandon you after all you’ve been through together? God knew what He was getting when He saved you, and He has made all provision in order to help you to overcome and be empowered by His Spirit for this last harvest. So dear one, this is not your end; your life is about to be resurrected! PS 71:20 Though you have made me see troubles, many and bitter, you will restore my life again; from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up. 21 You will increase my honor and comfort me once again.  https://www.facebook.com/LonnieMackleyMinistry

I hear the whisper of your heart by Sharon Luzzi

December 22, 2015 

My people are mourning over what looks like is dying. 
Rest assured that I am not only resurrecting new things, I am bringing forth 
that which is promised. 
Your timing is not my timing. 
I am not a man that I should lie. 
I have not forgotten. 
I have put things in motion for your promises. 
Throw off the grave clothes. 
Stop mourning and grieving. 
Rejoice 
In all manner and ways your promises are manifesting. 
Keep your hearts fixed on My Heart. 
Fixed on me. 
I am the Almighty One who answers your prayers. 
You have not been forgotten. 
Fine wine is a delicate process. 
Love far outweighs wine. 
Love takes time. 
True Love takes time. 
My gifts and Blessings are very carefully planned. 
Very carefully processed. 
Far above what you can imagine or think of. 
I am working on your deepest hearts desires. 
Nothing will be left undone. 
You will not be disappointed. 
Even things you thought that were not going to come to pass or work out. 
My will be done. 
I am your Father who delights in giving you the desire of your heart. 
Yes I know and see your heart. 
Nothing is too hard for me or impossible. 
Do not think that I have not heard even the whisper in your heart. 
I also know the crying out.I desire to gain intimacy with you. 
My desire is to be intimate with you 
To have a relationship with you where you are no longer afraid. 
I have come to give you peace. 

Entering the door of the Father's Heart by Susan O Marra

Entering Door of the Chambers of the Father’s Heart” 

I saw a long narrow passageway that was lined with rooms, and hidden alcoves. Some doors were open and some were shut. As I walked by the doors, I could view into some of the rooms and alcoves. One room I passed had a simple kneeling altar placed in it, and there was someone quietly kneeling at it in prayer. Another room I saw into had a long sitting bench, pillows all around, and soft music was playing. I saw a young lady sitting there with her eyes closed listening to the worship music. Another door I looked into revealed a room that had many tables and chairs in it, and there were many people sitting at them and they were all discussing the Lord with each other. I saw a small alcove in the passageway that had many beautiful plants in it, a small reading chair, and a bookshelf with many books in it. I saw an older gentleman sitting there in the chair deeply engrossed in reading a book. I kept on walking down the passageway, and soon I came to the very end of the passage, and there was a single wooden door. 

The door was very thick and it had carved symbols written on the door that I could not interpret when I looked at it. I reached up to run my fingers along the etched letters, the letters seemed to move and respond to my touch, and suddenly the letters changed as I looked at them. I could then read the words, and they said, “Enter into the Chambers of the Father’s Heart.” My heart then raced with a deep longing, and I reached for the door handle to open it. But before I could turn the handle, the door opened. I then stepped into the room and it was filled with a soft light that I could not decide what color it was, but if I could, it would be a mix of red, gold, and white. There was a simple sofa, a golden table, a rich wooden desk and a chair, soft piled carpet, and a large picture window. I thought to myself, “this does not look like the chambers of the Lord’s heart that I have been in before.” 

“You are right", an angel in the room said to me. “This place is reserved for the seekers. Many seek to know the Father’s heart, but many do not get past the distractions and the methods of men, to deeply enter in. The Father desires that His People would put away the distractions of this life, and the things that have been presented to them, so that they can seek Him to reveal Himself to them. There is so much more for your generation to discover and to apprehend in your lifetimes. It is time for the deep places within you to cry out for the deeper truths found within Him. There can be no deep and lasting relationship without an intimate embrace. It is time to leave the surface of what has been known, and to go into the deeper Streams of His Love. So, this place that you see here is going to be transformed. No longer will this room be known as the norm. It is time for a deep love to be born! You are here to see what shall begin to happen, even quickly.” 

As he spoke, I could see flames dancing in the angels being. I could feel his deep concern, and also his jealousy for the Father’s heart. His eyes burned with fire and his hands trembled as he pointed around the room and to its casual furnishings. Suddenly, a fire came forth from his hands and it burned up everything in the room. The room was totally singed and nothing was left but ashes. I was shocked to see this happen as I thought it was a relaxing place to be in. The angel shook his head. “No, Sue. This is what many people want when they think of being with Him. Many stay here in this room in comfort and peace, but they never get past this room, which is only still the entrance to the deeper chambers. Although you will have this comfort and peace when you are with Him, it is not to be the primary focus of your journey into discovering more of Him. Come, let us begin.” 

He then reached out his hand to me, and I placed my hand within his. A panel in the far wall of the room opened up and we both turned to go towards that panel. I saw that it was a secret panel entrance to another place. There were steps within that went upwards, and we both slowly began to walk up the stairs. With each stair we stepped onto, I began to feel the Father’s heart in a deeper reality. There was such a clarity that began to awaken in my thoughts that I gasped at the simplicity of His Love for all things. I gripped the angel’s hands even tighter as the intensity of the Father’s love began to flood my mind. I turned to look at the angel and the angel was gone. It was now the Lord who was holding my hand and walking with me up the stairs! I said, “Lord!” Jesus just laughed at me, even his eyes crinkled at Me amused at my surprise. 

Jesus said, “Why are you so surprised? You know that I am the one that reveals the love of the Father to all men. I am the only entrance to the Father, and to fully knowing Him! How I wished that men would come to Me! But many are distracted in this hour. Many of My own children are caught up in the things of this world, in the programs of religion, and even burdened with the burdens of humanity. Great distractions have been set up by the enemy to lead many away from the knowledge of Me. This deeply concerns Me in this hour. This is not a time to be distracted, this is a time to more deeply enter in. It is time to learn of Me- from Me! It is time to climb the Stairs of Intimacy! It is time to sup with the Father and with Me. I have many things to tell all who shall follow Me in this hour. You are entering a new hour and I shall begin to deal with the earth in greater power. I am coming to reveal Myself to all who will seek Me and I am coming to shake all who will not receive Me.” 

“Your generation has wandered long enough. My church has wandered long enough. It is time to shut yourself in with Me and to sit with Me and to become men after My own heart. I shall no longer allow My people to remain in the outer courts, or to just dabble in the inner chambers, No! You must fully walk in the depths of our Intimacy! In order to make disciples for Me, you must reveal the depths of Me! I do not want men to be conformed to the teachings of men, but molded of Him! Look into My Word, and rely upon My Spirit! You are to have your focus only upon Me, and as you sincerely desire to know Me and to know My Father, we will lead you in, and meet even more with you! It is time to know the true, and not just to rely upon that which men present to you. It is time for the deeper truths to give now birth! As you walk with Me intimately you will navigate through these years ahead of you safely. I am here to harvest the earth!” 

“You are the generation of great worth! I have called you each to live on this earth for My purposes, and not for yours, or for man’s. It is time to be about My business, and to understand! It is time for you each to climb these stairs, and as you do, I shall more fully awaken you. I shall fill you and flood you with light, and with deep true insight! I do not desire that My people would continue to perform religiously before men, but I do desire that My Sons would truly lead My people in! It is time for My New Leaders to fish for men! It is time for deep intimacy to begin! It is My Love that will grip the hearts of men! There is no other way to enter in, but by Me! I am the Way to true Intimacy! My Father and I share His Glory, and the knowledge of Him is hidden within Him. It’s time to enter into the deep knowledge of Him. This is why your generation must awaken, for the earth is going to be deeply shaken. It is My Spirit that will unlock the mysteries of My Father reserved for your generation.” 

“You know the path to My Heart. You have been seated in your seat, but My Father’s burden is not yet complete. There are many empty chairs that have yet to be filled. This is the Year, when My People will stand deeply rooted in My Love and will not fear, for I have drawn them near! So, My Fires are going to greatly fall, and My Winds will blow away all, that is a hindrance to Intimacy’s Call. I am going to deal with it all! I am going to allow the plundering of all that resists My Thundering. For many are not listening to Me, so they will find themselves laboring needlessly in My Season of Greater Intensity. This is not My desire, but many will not do the things I require, so My Dealing Flames will go higher, until I cleanse out all of the worldly mire. Many shall then return, and with My Love they will fully burn!" 

"It is time that My People intimately learn! Look, for within My Hands, is Love's Scale! It is the Hour of Love’s Travail! Through these seeking times ahead, I will unfold Myself unto you all. My Father and I shall manifest ourselves in you, and unto you, and also through you, for the knowledge of My Glory shall greatly increase and shall transform everything in your midst! I shall fully measure it all, and My Love shall overcome through it all. The Fires of My Glory have only begun to fall. My deeper burdens shall be understood, and shall be shouldered by all. Everything that I have ever spoken shall indeed prevail, for My Words to you are Eternal and shall never fail! So cleave richly unto Me, for all these things shall unfold in your nation quickly!" 

Scriptures: 

Luke 1:17 And he will [himself] go before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn back the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient and incredulous and unpersuadable to the wisdom of the upright [which is the knowledge and holy love of the will of God]—in order to make ready for the Lord a people [perfectly] prepared [in spirit, adjusted and disposed and placed in the right moral state]. 

1 Corinthians 8:2 If anyone imagines that he has come to know and understand much [of divine things, without love], he does not yet perceive and recognize and understand as strongly and clearly, nor has he become as intimately acquainted with anything as he ought or as is necessary. 3 But if one loves God truly [with affectionate reverence, prompt obedience, and grateful recognition of His blessing], he is known by God [recognized as worthy of His intimacy and love, and he is owned by Him]. 

Ephesians 3:16 May He grant you out of the rich treasury of His glory to be strengthened and reinforced with mighty power in the inner man by the [Holy] Spirit [Himself indwelling your innermost being and personality]. 17 May Christ through your faith [actually] dwell (settle down, abide, make His permanent home) in your hearts! May you be rooted deep in love and founded securely on love, 18 That you may have the power and be strong to apprehend and grasp with all the saints [God’s devoted people, the experience of that love] what is the breadth and length and height and depth [of it]; 19 [That you may really come] to know [practically, through experience for yourselves] the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge [without experience]; that you may be filled [through all your being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]! 

MSG: 14-19 My response is to get down on my knees before the Father, this magnificent Father who parcels out all heaven and earth. I ask him to strengthen you by his Spirit—not a brute strength but a glorious inner strength—that Christ will live in you as you open the door and invite him in. And I ask him that with both feet planted firmly on love, you’ll be able to take in with all followers of Jesus the extravagant dimensions of Christ’s love. Reach out and experience the breadth! Test its length! Plumb the depths! Rise to the heights! Live full lives, full in the fullness of God.

She is ready to do my will on the earth.

Rejoice for My Bride has readied herself for My Glory.

Word of the Lord for 2016 by Phyllis Ford

Word of the Lord for 2016: Part I by Phyllis Ford

The following is a compilation of dreams, visions, and utterances I received from the Lord concerning the coming year 2016. One of the things that the Lord revealed to me were words that would be frequently used in 2016. These words will have great significance in the media, in biblical teaching, and in other arenas where people will be open to hear and understand.  The two words that will be repeated over and over throughout the year will be "LOVE" and "LIES." I had a significant vision while in prayer, the Lord said that people would either focus on the foundation of His truth which is His Love or focus on the Lies of the enemy. The choice will be ours. The Lord showed me that in this season "lies" will be exposed. He revealed to me a divine strategy that will come in the release of revelation. Along with that revelation will come a sound from heaven through praise and worship. This sound will carry another level of anointing  to tear down and destroy the enemies resistance by the release of strong Apostolic prayer. Prophetic Insights coming out of 2015 and entering into 2016 The word for the year of 2015 was "Rest", but the word for the year 2016 is "Love". We are coming out of the season of rest in the Lord, but with the knowledge gained in the resting place. This rest displayed our ability to yield to the presence of God trusting that He was in control of our lives in 2015.  We watched and observed the Lord move and work in our lives while waiting and resting in Him. In that time He prepared us for the next journey. The rest we were to enter into was the kind where we relinquish our ability to fix, manage, and control things. Not all of us rested in the time of rest. Yielding during the time of rest was key for us to learn. If we didn't properly yield in 2015 we will have to yield all the more in January 2016. For those that fought the rest must now press for what they missed during the time of rest. Despite it all a window of redemption is coming in January 2016, and those that fell out of sync with last year's rest can reconnect and push forward not missing a step. This time allowing the Spirit of God to move unencumbered on their behalves in every facet of life. We will find that yielding has everything to do with humbling ourselves and having a teachable spirit. As we walk through this year where the key word concerning 2016 is Love we have to look at a few things to come into a full understanding. We need to look at what the ministry of reconciliation truly is about. We must also look at the Father's love and consistently walk in mercy and forgiveness towards us and others. Along with this truth we also see how the blessings of the Lord operate in us and for us while others are touched, healed, and receive a greater dimension of His grace. These truths are beneficial and as a result we also understand how to forgive and release others and speak the healing words of blessings upon their lives. As a result they will begin to bloom and prosper in this new place of restoration.  The fullness of love doesn't just forgive but adds another dimension which includes the impartation of God's breath upon one to build and create. What is potentially present now comes just as a flower transforms from a seed and it grows. Taking on form and becoming something beautiful according to the origin of the intent from which it was created. There is a prophetic dimension that calls the sons and daughters into alignment in the earth. We will see this grow and unfold more in 2016. We will become a part of that process as we continue to see ourselves as we look more and more like the Father. The image that has now come forth looks less like the flesh and begins to mirror Him in the Spirit. This transformation is occurring as we come to grips with that which we must conform to in order to be transformed. The conforming process means that we walk in a total acceptance to what we are to be by keeping our eyes upon Him and not upon us. His word is very powerful and so is the way we see Him. The more we acclimate ourselves to who He is and what His ways are the further we progress in that transformation. Some of us don't look like God, because we have become unacquainted with who he is. We must seek to know him so that we are able to understand the spiritual aspects of ourselves in a new and better way. We then lay hold to who He is and who we are so that the transformation process can begin to bring forth harvest.   His Words: Lies Versus Love:  "I will expose the lies of the enemy in the government and in the church. Many lies will be uncovered in this hour, as they have had an deep impact on the hearts and the minds of the people. In this time you will see an uprooting of lies. You will hear a repetition of this word (LIES) as this will be a part of what I am doing in 2016. For during these next two years there will be uncovering of previous back door deals, alignments with countries, even ungodly agreements with individuals that will be looked upon as damaging to the very core issue of your nation." "For you are in a season where many nations are literally standing at a crossroad. There has been a descending of morals and values that were once founded in me. Now the foundation that has been built up by men is crumbling at it's core. But know that in the very midst of this, I shall raise up a people who are not afraid and have been through some of the hardest struggles. Overcomers, for they will lead many into the light in the midst of a descending darkness. It is unfortunate that many major nations have fallen into the hands of unscrupulous men." "But my people who have become rooted in my word and resolved in the secret place of prayer will carry a powerful overcoming anointing to withstand and uproot the lies of the evil one. For this is a time of re-planting.  A re-planting of my words, my strength and the truth that will refuse to dwell in the midst of the lies. For the lies will be uprooted, and the ground will be cleared. The ground of peoples heart, the ground of people minds, and the ground of people's spirits will be cleansed. The land will be cleansed with my love, mercy, and purity of purpose that will be planted into the ground.  It will purge and uproot that which was sown by the enemy.   This is a time and a hour for a great cleansing to take place; unto the people, unto the land, and unto the church. This cleansing will cause a re-turning and a changing and in that turning and that changing my people will be delivered, healed, and prepared." The Process of Restoration: "There will be a restoration, a return to the place of original intent and a return back to ground that needs to be taken in the realm of the spirit.  A return back to those things that I have called my people to accomplish. I will work generationally and I will take my people into a deeper depth of the anointing and into the power of my grace in my love. For this will be a part of that which I have placed upon them that they may grow. In this time of planting, do not feel that the planting is to destroy you but the planting is to restore you" . "I will even take this season of restoration and will unveil the seedlings within the plant of its origin, and you will see my purpose purify the hearts and minds of my people. They will become ready, they will come forth, and they will move forth to do the things that I have called them to do in this season. Then you will understand the re-digging of the wells and the replanting of my word. As it called to take root and bear fruit as my plan becomes activated in this hour." "Know that the other four letter word that you hear will be love. For I am restoring love in my house for the basis and the foundation of all things. This Love will be rooted, grounded, and planted in those who represent me. Many have said that this nation is over and that there is nothing more that can be done, but I will do great and mighty things. For I will work through love and my love will draw many into the kingdom. My love will heal, my love will restore, and my love will purify hearts. It will lead and guide many of those that are lost and crying out in this hour." Love will carry a New Sound in the Earth: "For they will hear the sound of love and the melodies from heaven that will arouse and awaken them in this night season. The pain of the past will be washed away by the sound that will echo from the heavens to this earth. The earth shall quake from the sounds heard from the heavens and will respond with gladness of the re-birthing that I will do in this time. So open your hearts and open your ears that you may hear what I am saying to you now. For I will directly speak into your lives. And answers, solutions, and resolve will come with the sounding of my voice as I speak to you during this night season." "Listen and hear for I speak to you with words of wisdom and truth that will fill you with great light. You will connect with and understand what is being said. You will move forth in the land for my love will carry a sound. It will carry an anointing, a glory, and a grace that many will hear and heed the call. For with loving kindness I have drawn you in. For now my love will cover and restore so many who are wounded and battle weary.  Even those who have given up." Understanding the Power of Choice: "So I say this day you must make a choice. Will you allow the lies of the enemy to rule your life? Or will you allow the love that I have placed upon you, the everlasting love, a love that will never die,  and a love that will never end to work upon your life? For if you do you will never be the same. So allow this love to heal you and allow yourself to be yielded to that place of peace called love. I will fill you and restore you with fresh oil and new wine of my spirit. Remember, Love will be a buzz word that you will hear as I whisper peace into your life and joy into your soul." "My people I say, you must decide! For in this hour you will be either motivated by love to reconcile others with hearts of forgiveness, mercy, and compassion. Or you will allow the lies of the enemy that bring forth hatred, prejudice, evil, bitterness and unforgiveness to overshadow your soul. There is a breeding ground from that which will come from a evil root. Much has occurred because they relied upon their own strength, upon their own abilities, and upon their own mind to settle the problems of the day. But I say to you return back to my word. If you study my word, live in my word, and walk in my word, you will see I am redeemer of people. With a love that is able to destroy that which was broken and breathe into it new life." I will raise up New Voices: Hollywood even Comedians:   "I will raise up mouthpieces in the media and Hollywood. For I will speak through them and through the writers of Hollywood productions and comedic writers as well. I will move, change, and even influence a group of people for I will write through them and speak through them and my people will listen from near and far. I will touch a people who have not been touched or even moved, and they will be moved by the testimonies that I will tell through those lives." "I will speak to a people where there has been mocking even curses that came from those lips, and I will cause my blessings to spring forth out of those same mouths. For I have a redemptive purpose and I will redeem that which I desire to redeem. I will bring forth that which I desire to bring forth for I am their healing and saving God, and I shall change the words of men. I shall speak and they shall harken unto my voice and I shall turn their hearts and change their minds, change their behavior, and change their lives. For I will call them forth to be mouthpieces in the hour when none would ever suspect it. I will use them as I pour forth my spirit upon flesh and even the flesh of them who have turned their backs on me. For did I not do it as Saul became Paul? So shall I do it now, and I shall bring it to pass." "In that hour it will happen to those whom I will prepare. Know that I am going to change Hollywood. I am going to change voices and even through comedic voices shall I change lives. For I shall transform their lives and remove the dross off of them. I shall put on them new garments. I shall turn their ears and their mouths. For they will speak my words they will bring forth joy not folly, not mockery, and not those things which shall harm. I shall make them new. I shall mend hearts and minds says the spirit of God. I have held them for this season and that which mocked and scorned will speak forth my blessings and my joy. And the joy of salvation shall be upon my people and they shall be healed and rejoice." French Canada: People & Region:  "I speak to the French Canadian regions and say, Rise up, Oh Canada, Rise up, Oh Canada. I shall take this people and use them making them sharp threshing harvest instruments having teeth. They shall thresh and bring down great mountains, they shall thresh through great hindrances and they shall breakthrough, and become harvest instruments in 2016." "Watch the month of September. For in that ninth month I shall do great and mighty things. I shall do such great things that people will look upon that region and will say, "Look at what has happened in that region!". Look at what is stirring, look at what is coming, look at what is ahead, and look at what has been established. Prepare yourselves through prayer and fasting. Prepare for visitation. For I shall speak to the intercessors of that region and say, Rise up, Oh Canada, for I call you unto me. It will  be known as a place of revival, and revival fire will burn there. For I will fire baptize those who yield themselves to me and they will come forth. The Jews out of those regions will come forth and aliyah. For they will return to their Land and they will rejoice for they will be going home. What you will see in this region will spread over my land and crossover the waters for the move of my power has begun." Other Prophetic Insights Concerning 2016: Uprooting the Spirit of Folly & Seduction: Another issue the Lord began to speak to me about is the spirit of Folly and how it relates to the spirit of Seduction. Many times we think that the opposite of wisdom is ignorance. We all know that fear of the Lord is beginning of Wisdom. That word fear also translates to reverence and respect for the things of God. Well our refusal to follow God, respect God, acknowledge God is a fool's response. A fool says in his heart there is no God. The opposite of wisdom is not ignorance, but folly. Folly develops into mockery founded on a disrespect and disregard for the things of God. It is an end-time enemy which is tied into the spirit of rebellion and seduction. If proverbs states that a fool says in his heart that there is no God. We must realize that the spirit of seduction entices us to turn away from God and the spirit of Folly tells us to embrace a path without Him. When Paul talks to the Galatians he says Galatia who has bewitched you because they did not walk in Abraham's faith.  The word bewitched meant beguiled, to seduce or entice. The desire for ungodly things will lure the hearts of men in other things and move them away from the things of God. Away from their faith and into a mindset of unbelief where we have given into desires as if God does not exist or the fear of God is not in us. This lure is not just a sexual lure it includes ungodly mammon, addictions, and tangible obsessions. We cannot serve two masters. We can not serve the things of the world and the things of God. We must be careful for the things that we allow ourselves to possess can in the presence of these unchecked desires take possession of us. This is why Moses and Elijah stood before the people telling them to make choices. When the children of Israel were taken into captivity they were first taken in their hearts before they were physically taken away. This is why we must pursue Christ Jesus making Him our hearts desire. So we have to guard our hearts and minds against the works of the flesh. We must not allow ourselves to become overly focused upon the things of the flesh. So that even small things will not become idols and graven images that have been placed above the things of God. Be ready as we approach an age who looks to the earthly satisfactions rather than Godly answers to everyday dilemmas. The Lord's strategy for Uprooting the "Lies" of the Enemy: (The following is a revelation that when studied will only further reveal itself.) The Lord revealed a strategy in prayer using a combination of scriptures that tie together as one. It was concerning his unveiling plan to uproot "lies." He begin by stating that the spirit of pride operates as the spirit of Leviathan which the origin means to twist, mislead, or make crooked  the circumstances of a matter. Leviathan is also the author of many misunderstandings. Isaiah 27 says that God will pierce Leviathan with a sword (God's revelation of His word). It then it goes on to say to sing about the fruitful vineyard to watch over it. Here in this prophetic word the planting of truth and understanding son-ship identity uproots the lies of the enemy. Then it goes on to unveil the scripture of Job 41 which says a hook with be used to draw out this "spirit of lies" (Leviathan). The Lord showed me in a dream that the hook was a connection to a season in time. In 5776 vau which is said to represent 6 means to hook, to fasten, or to stake into the ground. We have now entered the time when the new Hebrew year unlocked and uncovered God's plan to destroy that spirit.  So we move on to the scripture of Isaiah 22 which unveils the opening of a door that no man can shut. That door takes us to a time prepared in God when this enemy will be overturned. So we see in that same chapter a man named Shebna (which represents pride) who is taken out of position and replaced by fastening of another who has the heart of a loving Father named Eliakim. When you line up these scriptures we see a prideful spirit of Leviathan who is destroyed by a revelation, followed by a worship (a new sound), a replanting of truth, unlocked in time. And the leadership representing the Father's love replacing the evil that was overthrown. Isaiah 27: 1-3 (NLT) In that day the Lord will take his terrible, swift sword and punish Leviathan,[a] the swiftly moving serpent, the coiling, writhing serpent. He will kill the dragon of the sea. In that day, sing about the fruitful vineyard. I, the Lord, will watch over it, watering it carefully. Day and night I will watch so no one can harm it. Job 41:1-3 (KJV) Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? Or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down? Canst thou put an hook into his nose? Or bore his jaw through with a thorn? Will he make many supplications unto thee? Will he speak soft words unto thee? Isaiah 22: 20-25 "And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah: And I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah. And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open. And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father's house. And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the issue, all vessels of small quantity, from the vessels of cups, even to all the vessels of flagons.  In that day, saith the Lord of hosts, shall the nail that is fastened in the sure place be removed, and be cut down, and fall; and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off: for the Lord hath spoken it."

MIRACLE WAITING BY LANA VAWSER

THERE IS A MIRACLE WAITING ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HURDLE OF OFFENSE

Lana Vawser

As I sat with the Lord over the past few days He showed me a particular issue that He is raising in many hearts in this season, and it was the issue of offense. He was showing me many struggling in heart over the "questions" that haven't been answered. The questions of this season that have been birthed out of a 'long wait' and 'not understanding'. Out of disappointment and unmet expectations. The Holy Spirit is moving powerfully revealing offense that has crept into many hearts towards Him and towards others. I felt the heart of a good Father moving in love, exposing hearts, to bring healing and to teach His people how to live unoffendable. How to live in greater depths of revelation of His love and greater trust in Him and His timing. 

I felt the Lord saying that in this season we as His people are to echo the prayer of David in Psalm 139:23-24

"God, I invite Your searching gaze into my heart, examine me, find out everything that may be hidden within me. Put me to the test, and sift through all my anxious cares. See if there is any path of pain I'm walking on, and lead me back to Your glorious, everlasting ways - The Path that brings me back to You" (The Passion Translation)

I believe the Lord is asking for our "permission" for His searching gaze to examine our hearts, to test us and sift through our hearts and anxious cares and deliver us from any paths we are walking on. The Lord is not asking us to be "navel gazers" or to become "introspective' but I believe the Lord is looking for the permission for Him to go deeper into our hearts in this season to bring out anything that's in there that is not leading us in His everlasting ways. He is purging and sifting to bring the best, unique, beautiful, healed, whole you FORWARD to step into your next DIVINE OPPORTUNITY.

The Lord showed me that offense is hindering many. It's hindering many from the DIVINE OPPORTUNITY that's waiting for them on the other side of the offense. There is a miracle waiting on the other side of the offense. 

The Lord is not revealing the issue of offense to bring condemnation or shame, this is not of the Lord. The Lord is revealing it because He wants to LEAD YOU in healing. He wants to teach you to live unoffendable. "To be easily offended is immature love". (Danny Silk) The Lord is taking His people DEEPER into the revelation of His love. 

He wants to show you at a deeper level what a GOOD FATHER He is even when things are going on that you don't understand. He is not angry at you for struggling with offense, He wants to wrap His arms around you, and walk with you and bring you to the place of letting go.

Bill Johnson says: "Offense is sometimes the invitation from God for the very breakthrough you have been crying out for... Want to know how to keep an offence? Just rehearse what went wrong. Want to know why an offense hurt so much? Because you replayed it over and over in your head." 

The Lord is positioning His people as they give Him their YES IN the offense and not let the offense they are feeling to stop them from pressing deeper into Him. The Lord is going to encounter His people and BREAK the spirit of offense that has kept many bound and many will see SUDDEN openings of new DIVINE OPPORTUNITIES.

God will sometimes offend our minds to reveal our hearts (Bill Johnson) and to bring transformation, healing and a change of thinking. 

John Wimber said "When God offends our minds he knows that the righteous will patiently seek him for understanding regarding the circumstances that created the offense. "

Don't let offense stop you. Allow Him to embrace you, soothe you, as you move forward in repentance, great freedom awaits you. Offense is hindering clarity, it's affecting decision making, it's producing fruit in your life that is not God's heart for you. The enemy is looking for areas of offense in the hearts of God's people to bring a 'disconnect', to bring you to a place of withdrawal, a place of "sitting on the fence" when the Lord has declared a divine breakthrough, shift and 'taking new territory' over you in this season and offense has become the block, the hurdle you must jump over to get to it. 

He will set you free and bring healing to you, give Him your YES to help you deal with it and bring restoration to you. There is a great move of His Spirit happening right now in the body of Christ, where the Lord is restoring purity. Be encouraged, if issues of the heart are coming up, it's for you to be healed, and move into your next divine opportunity.

Don't allow the enemy to condemn you in offense, offer the Lord your YES to examine, test and try your heart and watch and see what He is going to do. Watch the healing, restoration, breakthrough and freedom blossom. Watch how He is going to position you into your next DIVINE OPPORTUNITY and you will look back and see that offense was attempting to keep you from this very next divine opportunity before you.
