Pushing Boundaries

[vision]10/30/11

SAW: A man propped up along side a fence.  Beside him is a bear also propped up on the fence.  As I watched the bear started roaring fearlessly as a lion might.  The  man simply stood in no fear of the bear and watched.


"Like a roaring lion and a charging bear Is a wicked ruler over poor people."( Proverbs 28:15)

Acceleration

[vision/rhema] 10/26/11

SAW: A large faced clock with no numbers, glowing white.  The hands on the clock were rapidly spinning around.

HEARD: Acceleration.

Speak with Authority

[rhema] 10/25/11

During the night...

HEARD: Call that which is not as though it were.

HEARD: To the same measure you use.

" (as it is written, “I have made you a father of many nations”) in the presence of Him whom he believed—God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did;" (Romans 4:17)

"Then He said to them, “Take heed what you hear. With the same measure you use, it will be measured to you; and to you who hear, more will be given. (Mark 4:24)


Fill Thy Cup: 
We are called to act as children of God and with the same measure we listen to our Father, so he will listen to us.  Therefore, let us come out and use the measure of God the creator of this universe and speak of things that do not exist as though they did.  This means we are to speak peace into the chaos.  We are to speak life, over death.  We are to speak prosperity when it looks like poverty. We are to speak healing where sickness abides.  We are to speak victory when it looks like defeat.  


When you are speaking of things that do not exist as though they did, there is no limit.  God says, "Speak with the sovereign authority that I have given you as sons and daughters of the Most High God.  Authority I gave you when I placed all of creation under your dominion. Do this and be over comers by the blood of my son. "

Amen and Amen 

Mouse with a Microphone

[vision] 10/22/11

Last night at the Ramp Karen Wheaten asked a very profound question.

"Who would you be with out fear of man in your life."

She then had everyone close their eyes and she prayed asking the Holy Spirit to reveal to each and everyone who they are right now and then who they would be with no fear of man in their lives.

Who I am right now:
SAW: I was clothed in a beautiful white robe trimmed in Gold.  I had a large gold crown on my head and a large golden scepter in right hand.

Who I would be with no fear of man:
SAW: The same picture as above, but this time I was given a city.

Wow! I was so convicted! As, I really had not considered myself to be one who fears man at all... But, through the eyes of the Lord, I have so work to do.   There are souls that need to hear the gospel.  And my fear of man is keeping them from eternal salvation.  No more!  I will not fear man!! I will hear and fully obey the Lord.

My prayer:
Father, right now I confess this sin to you. Lord, forgive me for fearing man.  Father, I want this city.  I claim it for you in Jesus Mighty Name!!

The LORD is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me? (Psalm 118:6)


So we may boldly say: “ The LORD is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?”(Hebrews 13:6)

"which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places," (Ephesians 1:20)

Dreams

[trance vision] 10/20/11

SAW: A family circus cartoon.  The father was sitting at a desk talking to the older boy who was standing in front of him.  The caption  under the picture said this, "Because they shall possess dreams and every moment of them shall be in the Word."

^"16 But this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:
       ¹⁷ ‘ And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God,
       That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh;
      Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
      Your young men shall see visions,
      Your old men shall dream dreams." (Acts 2: 16-17)

The Lord Reigns

[vision] 10/17/11

SAW: Huge rain drops falling from the sky.  Within the rain drops I saw the head of a lion.

"God reigns over the nations; God sits on His holy throne." (Psalm 47:8)


"Say among the nations, “The LORD reigns; The world also is firmly established, It shall not be moved; He shall judge the peoples righteously.” (Psalm 96:10)


"The LORD reigns; Let the earth rejoice; Let the multitude of isles be glad! "(Psalm 97:1)

Kingdom Authority

[dream] 10/16/11

I was walking into my kitchen and for some reason I looked down to the floor from where I had just walked.  I noticed a crushed spider. A BIG crushed spider.  I was somewhat puzzled because I didn't realize I had stepped on him until I looked back.
[end dream]

^"19 For your obedience has become known to all. Therefore I am glad on your behalf; but I want you to be wise in what is good, and simple concerning evil. ²⁰ And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen." (Romans 16:19-21)

Glory

[open vision] 10/14/11

SAW: The Lord in the sky above a mountain. Encircling the Lord's head was a rainbow surrounded by glory.

Ezekiel 1:28

New International Version (NIV)

" Like the appearance of a rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the radiance around him.

   This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. When I saw it, I fell facedown, and I heard the voice of one speaking."

Double Portion

[open vision] 10/14/11

SAW: Isaiah 61

SAW: The spine of a book with the pages open.

HEARD: Divisible by two. Double portion.

Isaiah 61:7

New International Version (NIV)

 "Instead of your shame
   you will receive a double portion,
and instead of disgrace
   you will rejoice in your inheritance.
And so you will inherit a double portion in your land,
   and everlasting joy will be yours."

But a Sword Has Come

[vision] 10/10/11


SAW: The earth.  As I watched I saw I huge sword piercing the earth through and through. 

Matthew 10:32-34 (NIV)

   ³² “Whoever acknowledges me before others, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven. ³³ But whoever disowns me before others, I will disown before my Father in heaven.
   ³⁴ “Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.

Root Layer

[vision] 10/12/11

Today while driving I saw this highway that had been established and built up some months ago.  I was reminded of the process that several crews took to establishing this highway.  I remember watching large dump truck loads full of dirt being brought it to build up it's foundation.  Once the foundation of the highway was established, hay was sprayed out covering the dirt hillside to prevent the foundation from washing away.  Today, as I drive by I see a thick grassy hillside well established.

In a flash as I was pondering all of this, I had an open vision of a cross section of this hillside.

SAW: A dirt foundation. Then a thick root layer.  Then a thick patch of grass.

Job 5:24-26 (NIV)

²⁴ You will know that your tent is secure;
   you will take stock of your property and find nothing missing.
²⁵ You will know that your children will be many,
   and your descendants like the grass of the earth.
²⁶ You will come to the grave in full vigor
   like sheaves gathered in season.

Jehovah Jireh

[vision] 10/10/11

SAW:  A lattice fence with a hedge on the top... As I watched I saw a ram struggle to get loose from the hedge.

Genesis 22:12-14

New International Version (NIV)

 ¹² “Do not lay a hand on the boy,” he said. “Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.”

 ¹³ Abraham looked up and there in a thicket he saw a ram caught by its horns. He went over and took the ram and sacrificed it as a burnt offering instead of his son. ¹⁴ So Abraham called that place The LORD Will Provide. And to this day it is said, “On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided.”

I just wonder how often we trust God with our everything.  


For me and my life, I have said to God, "Father, If I leave you and will not return, please take my life...".   I have even said to God, "Father, I give you my family.  If my life is better served to you for them to be in heaven then take them...".  I am not asking God to take them... But, I understand Jehovah Jireh!  So, I have offered my everything to God,  for without God I am nothing... With out his daily breath, I can't breathe. Without his daily instructions, I am lost.  Without his continual guidance, I am wavering.  Father for I am nothing without you... I lay down my life so that you may life...So that others may come to know you more... Father, I give you praise and glory for my everything!  I love you more and more each day that I live! 

Do Not Doubt

[trance vision] 10/10/11

SAW:  A waterfall and Jesus was standing on the edge of the waterfall...Literally standing on the water.

HEARD: Walk on Water.

Psalm 42:7 (NASB)
"Deep calls to deep at the sound of Your waterfalls; All Your breakers and Your waves have rolled over me."

John 6:18-20 (NIV)

^"18 A strong wind was blowing and the waters grew rough. ¹⁹ When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the water; and they were frightened. ²⁰ But he said to them, “It is I; don’t be afraid.”

Matthew 14:28-33

 (NIV)

"²⁸ “Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.”

   ²⁹ “Come,” he said.

   Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. ³⁰ But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”

 ³¹ Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?”

Father, I feel the edge of the waterfall right now... Father I choose to not look at the waves coming against me but I choose to look to you... To focus my eyes on you Lord...As I know that even right now you are separating things in my life...and Father though it hurts I will focus my eyes on you... I will not doubt that the end product will be better than the start...I tune my eyes and ears to the deep calling...and I will focus on those things... In Jesus mighty name.  I thank you Father, and I give you praise and glory! Amen

Be Not Deceived

[rhema] 10/7/11

HEARD: People leave the body and go to the slate.

Mark 13:1-7

New International Version (NIV)

" ¹ As Jesus was leaving the temple, one of his disciples said to him, “Look, Teacher! What massive stones! What magnificent buildings!”   ² “Do you see all these great buildings?” replied Jesus. “Not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”
 ³ As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John and Andrew asked him privately, ⁴ “Tell us, when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are all about to be fulfilled?”
 ⁵ Jesus said to them: “Watch out that no one deceives you. ⁶ Many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am he,’ and will deceive many."

Dwelling in The Covenant

[dream] 10/6/11

HEARD: Call that which is not as though it were


SAW: A book cover: The cover was white with a face in the top left.  At the bottom on what looked like a hill made out of a rainbow there sat a black cross.  At the foot of the cross was a ichthys in red.

This dream left then reappeared stronger.  I saw the same book cover twice.

Romans 4:17

King James Version (KJV)
"¹⁷(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many    

nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who 
quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as 
though they were."

Quickened vision from 5/24/11:  A Covenant.

[vision] 5/24/11

SAW: I was in a gold raft on very calm water. The water was colored like a rainbow extending from a golden sky. 

[quote] "The Three Battlegrounds" by Francis Frangipane

"Only God's peace will quell your fleshly reactions in battle. The source of God's peace is God Himself. Indeed, "before the throne there was something like a sea of glass, like crystal"(Revelation 4:6). The glass sea is a symbol: there are no ripples, no waves, no anxieties troubling God. The Lord is never worried, never in a hurry nor without an answer. The sea around Him is perfectly still and totally calm. All our victories flow out from being seated here with Him."
[end quote]


Rainbow signifies a covenant... a promise!
Genesis 9:12-13: "And God said, "This is a sign of a covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you a covenant of all generations to come. I have set my rainbow in the clouds and it will be a sign of the a covenant between me and the earth."

Gold is also used in conjunction with a covenant...The Ark of the Covenant: the table, the lampstand, snuffers, even the wick trimmers covered in pure gold (Exodus 25).

As I lay awake pondering the meaning of this vision...searching scripture...I asked the Lord to show me the raft in more detail and as I did...

SAW:  Close up vision of a top part of a "fishing boat".  It was gold and I saw myself standing in the boat with a white cap on my head wearing a navy blue shirt holding a fishing pole in my hand. 

HEARD: Fishers of men

Fishers of men.... ministering Christians

Mathew 4:19 and Mark 1:17~ "Come, follow me", Jesus said, "And I will send you out as fisherman for people." 

White: Purity, Righteousness

Ecclesiastes 9:8
"Always be clothed in white and always anoint your head with oil.' 

Revelation 3:5, "The one victorious will be liken them dressed in white, I will never blot out the name of that person from the book of life but will acknowledge that name before my Father and his angels."

Esther 8:15, "When Mordecia left the kings presence he was wearing royal garments blue and white, a large crown of gold, and a purple robe of fine linen and the city of Susa held a joyous celebration."

As I now am pondering this vision I had another vision~

SAW: a close up of 2 hands nailed to a cross one top of the other...{as in my hand in Jesus's}

Romans 6:6, "For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaved to sin." 

Galatians 5:24, " Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with it's passions and desires." 


Yes, Father~ I will place my hand in yours...nailed to the cross...accepting this covenant... Father, give me grace to be a fisher for people... for your glory Father... I can not walk alone... I am only able to walk with your grace... your guidance... give me vision Lord for my life in you... set the sails Lord... and point me in the right direction knowing with all certainty that you are my true North... I pray for grace and mercy as I might stumble...Lord pick me up and dust me off... help me Lord to keep my eyes on you... and always remember this covenant!!  In Jesus name... 

Speak NOT Death

[rhema] 10/2/11

HEARD: See death.

HEARD: I will not speak death over someone.

[vision] 10/4/11

SAW: A lady sitting with a blanket over her legs. As I watched I saw a spirit project out from her.

This spirit had a sagging 'grim ripper' face. I had the understanding immediately that this was 'death'.

1 Corinthians 15:44-46

New International Version (NIV)

⁴⁴ it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body.
   If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. ⁴⁵ So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living being”^[a]; the last Adam, a life-giving spirit. ⁴⁶ The spiritual did not come first, but the natural, and after that the spiritual.

Proverbs 14:30 (NIV)
A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones.


Proverbs 11:30 (NIV)
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and the one who is wise saves lives.


We are all appointed a time to die. It is an inevitable event.  However, we are not called to carry out death sentences. The very spirit that indwells us is the very spirit that gives life. therefore, we must be bearers of that same spirit and speak life into existence.  We must be cautious with our tongues as they are powerful weapons.  Even though I may 'see' death on someone or around someone...I must proceed with caution as to not speak 'death' into existence...I must not sentence them to death...but to life through the Holy Spirit.  Therefore, the words in my prayer over them are to reflect the the spirit of God which is LIFE! 


John 6:68 (NIV)
Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.


John 6:63 (NIV)
The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you—they are full of the Spirit and life.


Father, right now I speak peace and life over this lady in Jesus name.  Father, I command all fear to leave in Jesus name.  Father I thank you that your words are life...your spirit is life and the words I speak are life because you Father live inside me... I thank you now that this is done in Jesus name.  Amen~

Rainbow Rose

This morning I received this word from a personal friend of mine:

[start quote]
"Blooms in the desert' Is what I heard over you just now and at that moment I saw a yellow rose blooming but then it began it started changing colors 'rainbow rose'. Roses of rainbows will bloom in the desert.  I keep hearing covenants in the fragrances. The fragrances you smell are new covenants.
[end quote]

In the Natural Yellow Roses suggest pure friendship, joy and happiness.

In the Spiritual yellow means yielding our mind our will and our emotions to the will of God.  The following is an excerpt from "Collection of Prophetic Meanings of Colors" by Carol Nemitz

[start quote]
YELLOW: The Holy OIL OF GRACE that fills the Lampstand in the Temple. This oil is replaced fresh every morning and every night. In the Torah, priests are described as taking 8 days to prepare this Holy Yellow Oil. It is amber colored, sometimes green if the olive oil is green. This Oil is distilled anointing from the Billowing Clouds of Prayers that go up from the Altar of Incense. In the spirit, this Oil is the culmination of the distillation of God’s Words falling in drops like rain from the ceiling in the Temple. When the Bride of Christ prays with her High Priest the Incense is lit by God’s Holy Fire and billows of White incense come forth. This Fire causes the Heart of the Father to become known. This Oily Cloud condenses on the Temple ceiling like dew and rains down on those who wait on Him in prayer and worship. This Yellow Dew like oil rains Grace Drops from Heaven into our eyes and we are made able to see in the Spirit the things of Gods Kingdom. This is the eye salve spoken of in Revelations that is needed to be “bought” as well as the white garments. We “buy” them with time spent adoring Jesus and developing our relationship with Him. The Emotions of God fill the Cloud of Incense like a sparkling GOLDEN mist. In the spirit, the incense is like GOLDEN dust (see GOLD). Some of the same GOLDEN spices that are used to make the incense are in the oil for the lampstand. These spices are infused into the oil during a chemical process that happens when we worship and pray with the help of Holy Spirit and His FIRE. When the dew becomes airborne on the spiritual upheaval of intense prayer and worship, the dew becomes an oily substance that begins to run down Jesus’ Robe and prayer shawl as we experience His Presence. He spins around in joyful excitement in the billows of our worship and prayer. The oil gets slathered everywhere. This is what I call a storm of Grace because the oil begins to collect on all the surfaces inside the Temple and condenses on the ceiling. These drops of HOLY YELLOW OIL are distilled in tiny quantities because they can only be tolerated in small doses. They are concentrated prayers of God’s Heart. These drops of OIL multiply and get heavy and rain down when worship and prayer are thick. The angels collect this GLOWING YELLOW oil in bowls. This happens when the Grace rains down. Bowls are placed around the area in the Spiritual realm to collect this holy substance. When the bowls fill up the angels take the bowls filled with this liquid grace to those who are being prayed for and pour it into their lives. These bowls of amber or yellow glowing Grace oil shine on the angels faces. They stream down to the earth from the heavenly realms where the worship collects. Their paths light up and look like fingers of lava light flowing down the dark mountainside. It is an eruption of the River of Grace flowing to the places God is directing the prayers of the worshippers. There are many waiting for this precious oil to fill their lamps. We “buy” this oil by spending time in His Presence. We “buy” this oil when we allow our High Priest to squeeze our fruit until oil comes out. During high pressure times in our lives, if we yield to the Lord and trust Him, He makes this olive oil into JOY that will be set on FIRE to light our souls for His Glory. Lemons are YELLOW. This is what is meant by turning lemons into lemonade. This is the process of turning something terrifically sour into something pleasant even sweet. This is why it is important not to rush the fire process. Remember, it takes 8 days to make the special GOLDEN YELLOW oil in the Temple. this long period of time represents the spiritual chemical process that must occur during the horrible times of our lives when it is dark and there seems to be no light. if we seek Him God never lets this oil run dry. Our roots go down deep when there is no rain. That way when storms come, our roots will hold on at a very deep level to keep us from being overturned during storms. If we yield to trust Him, God turns every sour situation into something He can use later to bring light to someone who needs it even more. When darkness comes, those who have not stored up this oil will be begging for it and there will be none to be had, it will be too late to go through the long process to make this holy oil of amber GOLDEN YELLOW. Yellow is the color of YIELDING. YELLOW anointing oil is created when we yield our mind, our will, and our emotions to the LIVING GOD.

RAINBOW COLORS: COVENANT: Genesis 9:13

Benjamin’s flag was the color of multicolored jasper including all the colors of the tribes

The tribe of Levi’s flag is Black, Red, and White background with the Ephod pictured on it. The ephod is set with the twelve stones of multi-colors on it. To me the ephod represents our High Priest interceding for the nations, tribes, tongues, peoples. The ephod was used by those in authority to ask God questions and get answers by using the Urim and Thummim which were housed within the ephod in a secret compartment. When we COVENANT with our High Priest (Jesus) we partake in the benefits of His intercession by participating in praying the Heart of the Father. A promise we receive as members of His Covenant Relationship with Father God. The foundation stones are many colors, there is a rainbow described around the throne of God.

================================================

Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and He died and rose again so

you could know God and be victorious in this life.

Watchful Eyes

[rhema] 10/3/11

For I created you to be a leader not a follower. Look to me for guidance and approval. I am about to do a new thing in your life. One in which you can not conceive. For this is not birthed out of your desires but out of my desires for you.  Something new. Something fresh. like the sunrises on a fresh new day and the anticipation upon approach of the summit. For you are higher and will shine brighter. Only I can do this.  Only I can do this-Only I. I am your true north in the compass of your life- I will show you the way.
[end rhema]

[parable]
A couple of days ago, keely and I were on our back deck and I was teaching her how to use a worship banner.  At the time I really didn't think she was paying a lot of attention.  But, just now as I am sitting here receiving words from the Lord I hear, "Mommy, look. Watch me." I look up and see that she has the worship banner twirling it around beautifully. Doing exactly what I taught her.
[end parable]

HEARD: Just as you are teaching her, I am teaching you.  My eyes are upon you and I see all that you are doing. Even when it seems I am far off, I am not.  Beloved, you never leave my sight.

Father, thank you  for this word.  Father I give you praise and glory for never leaving me... I thank you for having your eyes upon me... For watching over me... Father that I may watch over others and teach others as well... In Jesus Name!

Psalm 121:7-8

 he will watch over your life; 

⁸ the LORD will watch over your coming and going 

   both now and forevermore."

SAW: A hand digging around in muddy water.

HEARD: Get the larger forceps

SAW: The hand reached out and got the larger forceps and dig around in the mud again.  As I watched I saw the hand dig a snake out that was hiding in the mud. The hand pulled the snake out and turned its face to me directly.

   ¹⁹ After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God."

Luke 10:19

New International Version (NIV)

SAW:  Isaiah 51

Isaiah 51:1-16

Everlasting Salvation for Zion

 ¹ “Listen to me, you who pursue righteousness
   and who seek the LORD:
Look to the rock from which you were cut
   and to the quarry from which you were hewn;
² look to Abraham, your father,
   and to Sarah, who gave you birth.
When I called him he was only one man,
   and I blessed him and made him many.
³ The LORD will surely comfort Zion
   and will look with compassion on all her ruins;
he will make her deserts like Eden,
   her wastelands like the garden of the LORD.
Joy and gladness will be found in her,
   thanksgiving and the sound of singing. ⁴ “Listen to me, my people;
   hear me, my nation:
Instruction will go out from me;
   my justice will become a light to the nations.
⁵ My righteousness draws near speedily,
   my salvation is on the way,
   and my arm will bring justice to the nations.
The islands will look to me
   and wait in hope for my arm.
⁶ Lift up your eyes to the heavens,
   look at the earth beneath;
the heavens will vanish like smoke,
   the earth will wear out like a garment
   and its inhabitants die like flies.
But my salvation will last forever,
   my righteousness will never fail.
 ⁷ “Hear me, you who know what is right,
   you people who have taken my instruction to heart:
Do not fear the reproach of mere mortals
   or be terrified by their insults.
⁸ For the moth will eat them up like a garment;
   the worm will devour them like wool.
But my righteousness will last forever,
   my salvation through all generations.”
 ⁹ Awake, awake, arm of the LORD,
   clothe yourself with strength!
Awake, as in days gone by,
   as in generations of old.
Was it not you who cut Rahab to pieces,
   who pierced that monster through?
¹⁰ Was it not you who dried up the sea,
   the waters of the great deep,
who made a road in the depths of the sea
   so that the redeemed might cross over?
¹¹ Those the LORD has rescued will return.
   They will enter Zion with singing;
   everlasting joy will crown their heads.
Gladness and joy will overtake them,
   and sorrow and sighing will flee away.
 ¹² “I, even I, am he who comforts you.
   Who are you that you fear mere mortals,
   human beings who are but grass,
¹³ that you forget the LORD your Maker,
   who stretches out the heavens
   and who lays the foundations of the earth,
that you live in constant terror every day
   because of the wrath of the oppressor,
   who is bent on destruction?
For where is the wrath of the oppressor?
 ¹⁴ The cowering prisoners will soon be set free;
they will not die in their dungeon,
   nor will they lack bread.
¹⁵ For I am the LORD your God,
   who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar—
   the LORD Almighty is his name.
¹⁶ I have put my words in your mouth
   and covered you with the shadow of my hand—
I who set the heavens in place,
   who laid the foundations of the earth,
   and who say to Zion, ‘You are my people.’”
