QUICKENED WORD:
***HEARD: "GENERAL"
***HEARD: "SAUL"
As soon as I woke up on the 1st I heard: "General" (...you see today is the 6th...I have been pondering this for several days now...) Then as I sat down with my bible and asked the Holy Spirit, "What do you want me to know... What do you want to say?" I heard, "Saul"
So, I turned to the last place I saw "Saul" in the scripture...which was 1 Samuel 15.. and read all the way through Saul's Kingship...from the time of his first encounter with Samuel until his death....When I finished reading I sat for a while just pondering what God was trying to tell me...I thought, "Yes, Saul was certainly a General!"
However, I just felt as though there was something still to these quickened words...and so I decided to shelve it... But as soon as I "shelved" it on my blog I went downstairs...and saw Benny Hinn on the TV and just as I walked into the room he said, "When Samuel said to Saul The spirit of God will come upon you and you will be a different person...You see it is a transfer of the anointing..." (1Samuel 10:6)
Experience: Email from "Generals International" (Cindy Jacob's Ministry). In this email Cindy was mentioning the upcoming "Cinco de Mayo Initiative' prayer for righteous trade, peace and security between the Mexico~USA border...
Honestly, I didn't make the connection right away...in fact you see that is several days later...So, still this morning...so baffled by this word... and not really identifying personally to it..But, when God speaks it's important and I want to be cautious to give it my full attention...So, looking closer at Saul...and his leadership which was one that was birthed due to the people of Israel wanting the leadership of a king instead of following the Lord... So, the Lord gave them a King...But, Saul failed in his anointing because he disobeyed the Lord... So, needing some mentoring...and some confirmation... I turned to my QW brothers and sisters... and this very key confirmation was sent...

RHEMA 7/16/98: GET YOUR EYES OFF SAUL BECAUSE HE IS DYING
HEARD: Power grid. Grid lock.
PIX: I saw 2 small wooden boxes with treasures inside. Inside there were stories of Jacob and men of the Bible. The second box had my own treasures inside.
HEARD: He has hidden Himself.
DREAM: I was sitting at a long table of prophetic leaders. (men) I leaned over to the fellow next to me who had announced he was from a certain Bible College before it had changed its name.
I said to him, “This is a Word from the Lord to you. Get your eyes off Saul, because Saul is dying. If you don't get your eyes off Saul, then you will become just exactly like him, because that is where your emotional focus is.” He cried and repented.
HEARD: They had some old dying leaves among them.
WORD TO PONDER GET YOUR EYES OFF SAUL 7/16/98
I am bringing a change of leadership. For many years, My Presence has been held back in the denominations by a controlling spirit. I am raising up new leadership that will have My heart for the people and will not quench My Spirit. You stand upon a bridge, between the old and new way. It is a span of time like an interval inbetween. It has been a long war with powerful gridlocks in the spirit realm between the old and new.
The controlling spirit has been like a cancer that has spread throughout the churches. I will be the Master Surgeon and excise the old decay out of My people. Saul is dying. Get your eyes of Saul. If your emotional focus is on Saul, you will become just like him. Place your eyes and heart upon Me and where I am taking you. Look forward and do not look back.
“And Samuel came no more to see Saul until the day of his death: nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul: and the LORD repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.” (1 Sam 15:35 KJV)
