Higher Ground
Bill Burns
The Lord says, I am about to bring
My children to higher ground. I am bringing them up to the
pastures in the green meadowlands where the grass has not
been fowled, where there is still feed to be received,
feed that will sustain you, where the cool waters flow.
You can come to the place of comfort; you can be nourished
and refreshed. You can come to the place where you know Me
in the heart of the Father where we are bound together as
one, you and I, for My purposes. My purposes are your
purposes, for I have predestined you according to that
purpose, and I am now leading you into the next phase, the
next level. It is higher ground where you can be one with
Me in My purpose, in this hour, for such a time as this.
And, you would ask Me why? Because it has already been
predestined, for I have a day, and I have an hour for all
things. In that season and day of that unveiling all you
have to do is be in unison with Me, and I will lead you
forth into the places that I have prepared for you. I will
reveal your destiny to you, and it will unfold before you.
Then, you will say, "WOW! My God has done it again."
I say unto you, the next six months I am declaring a war
against the enemy, and I am going to use you as My
battle-axes. For, there are powers of darkness that are
rising up even in this moment. They have sent their scouts
out and have watched and seen your hearts. They have seen
the anointing that I have brought upon this house. They
know in part the plans that I have for such as place as
this, a place of small beginnings. They are gathering
themselves together in high places to come against you and
try to steal from you that which I have purposed. I am
raising you up as warriors. You will become My weapons of
war under My covenant. You will go forth and strike the
enemy. I say, you have purpose for the next six months.
Take the ax and go. Go. Go. Go. Go up like Jonathan went
up. Do not be afraid of the enemy, for when he gathers, I
will strike him.

The Marriage Supper
Audette Johnson
"My Beloved Bride, where are you now? How can I bring you to the altar
when you are in pieces? Have you ever heard of a groom bringing His bride
to the altar by going around and bringing an arm, then the leg and the
head? You must come together in order for me to come and take you!
Leaders, rise up against the enemy and take back the divisions he has
placed among for I shall not go around piecing things together, you must
come together in unity and spirit as did the early church which I left to
you.
I also am viewing your garmets and as I spoke in my revelation prophecy
that the garmets and the linen are white as snow! How can I take you with
me in soiled garmets? You have let the enemy come in and soil the garmets
and I am telling you now that I will come when you have cleaned them up. v
I am here waiting and longing for you so that I can come, and I know you
long for Me so! I say to you church leaders CLEAN UP THOSE SOILED
GARMETS IN MY NAME! You know what to do. Let the Holy Spirit lead you in
the cleansing process.
Leaders, go out to the congregation and make them clean as Moses
and Aaron did in the wilderness! You must be the cleaners of my people.
Go now and restore them to complete wholeness. You know what to do.
Purge them of all uncleaness, all sickness, disease and abominations
caused by demons and the flesh. You must do it for the time is upon us.
The Holy Spirit is prompting My prophets to tell you to clean the soiled
garmets and prepare them to be white as snow so that My Bride will be
ready when I come to attend the Marriage Supper of the Lamb!"

Apostolic Move
UNDRAI FIZER
There are many who have received God's move as a "buzz word" or a new way
to promote themselves. But truly, God is sending forth His servants to
not only awaken the spirit of the Church to finally accept the functions
of Apostles and Prophets and the criteria of being one, but He is sending
His people to various places and experiences to awaken His Son Jesus in
the hearts of the Church.
There are some in the "Body" that don't want the fullness of the Christ.
They flock to the offices that God has re-activated in the mainstream
Church, i.e., the apostle and prophet.
As we fight over who can be an apostle and who can be and a prophet, the
Body still walks in fear and apprehension of one another and are trying
not to be "beat or outsmarted" by the other.
There is no unity of the faith, no passion to live or die for one another
(dying to our egos and inner apprehensions of one another).
The apostles and prophets are here and doing their job. But, just as it
was in Jesus' day, the Church is perceiving that the apostles and prophets
were "coming in another way or administration."
The people could not receive Christ because they thought He was coming for
"their own personal agendas and to overthrow the Roman government."
"Messiah" was the buzz word of their day. But, He came another way, a way
so different that the people doubted that the "Messiah Move" had ever
arrived. But He did arrive.
Some believers in the Church are looking for "something", an individual,
a style, or a result, from the apostolic and prophetic that is not
promised.
The move is not something to be approved by human wisdom or preference.
The anointings have come to stir up Christ in the hearts of the Church
(people). It has come to cause us to be inspired by the things that
inspired Christ.
Are we moved by the things that moved Jesus? Is the Holy Spirit giving us
the same passion for the will and purposes of God as it gave Jesus? The
apostolic and prophetic flow is to spark that hunger and point us into the
direction of the inner life and presence of Christ. Then we as the Church
will do the works that Christ did and love the way Christ loved.
We cannot do what He did until we are inspired the way He was inspired...

MAKING ROOM FOR CHANGE
Sandy Warner
Hi Loved Ones,
This week two Words came to me that were significant and I want to share them
with you. One was, "A change is coming." The other was, "A changing of the
guards." When the Lord breathes upon His Words, there are as many
applications as there are people to apply them. His Word is alive and bears
witness at so many levels that we can barely touch the surface. However, I
would like to share with you what these Words mean to me, in hopes that it
will touch and encourage some of you.
This year the Lord gave Bobby Conner a Word that said something like, "Brace
yourselves, the hand of God is coming down to uproot everything He has not
planted, in order to establish His government." This has proven true in my
life, for it is as though He has been peeling away layers of old, dead and
buried things. I made mention to this in 4 other postings this year.
(Circumcision at Gilgal, stripping Lazarus' grave clothes, and peeling away
band-aides and barnacles.) As He carefully exposed old wounds it was as
though He gave me a 2nd chance to respond to them appropriately with
forgiveness when necessary, and also personal repentance. He has even taken
me back to my foundations before I was born, to repent for the sins of my
ancestors.
Sometimes when we are in the midst of a cleansing process, the enemy confuses
us, and we are overcome by dirt and grime and can't see the forest through
the trees. I was ready for a change. I have a friend who has been house
cleaning after years of collection, and has taken several trips to the dump.
I kept telling her the Lord was removing the garbage from her life, so that
she could have room for the new when it comes. She had a dream this week
that was quickened to me concerning a prophetic experience I'd just had.
In the dream she saw this horse running around whinnying to all the animals
in the field. It was beautifully free as it shook its head. Then in the
next scene she saw this huge, pile of excess baggage being carted off. Above
and below the baggage were moving captions like on the tail end of a movie.
She kept trying to read the captions, but they were moving too fast to read
them.
I felt the Lord was saying that we were trying to focus on the old garbage,
and it was already being removed. We wanted to linger and figure it all out,
but He was already moving on towards this coming change. A few days ago, I
was feeling quite slimed from the enemy. I was more upside down then right
side up, after having so many layers removed this year. This brought me to a
place where I was starting to flinch. Sometimes when we go through a great
battle, we come out the other end, gun shy and jumping at the least little
thing. That is how I was feeling. So this strange experience occurs..
I was at my desk and needed to go to the restroom. I grabbed my reading
glasses to put them on my desk. My hand was in midair before I realized my
glasses were not on my face. I stared at my empty hand, wondering why I
would do such a strange thing and started to giggle. A couple minutes later
in the restroom I grabbed the toilet paper and pulled it down. Only the
toilet paper is not there either! My husband had torn out the bathroom floor
a few days before (layers peeled away, exposing foundations) and the toilet
paper roll had not yet been remounted on the wall. I stared at my empty hand
and laughed as I understood the Word of the Lord, given to me with such
clarity.
WORD TO PONDER
"I have removed the old dead layers in your life. I did not expose them for
you to linger over them. They are GONE. They are but filthy rags and they
are GONE. You are still trying to see though old lenses, but they are GONE.
You are shadow boxing with nothing. They are GONE. You are wincing. They
are GONE. You are trying to figure it all out. They are GONE. Your past is
GONE. Yes, it takes time for you to make the adjustment while old patterns
repeat themselves. But you will soon see they are just empty motions.
For I have brought you into a new place. A place of freedom. A place of
purity, where the dry rot of flesh has been purged, where the smelly places
have been removed. You remember the shame, the filth, the slime, and yet I
have already installed a new foundation beneath your feet. It is already in
place and you have yet to realize it.
Even now, I want to bring a new change to your door. Places where you have
been the tail, I will make you the head. And where you have been trampled
upon by the enemy, you will suddenly rise and place him beneath you. The
enemy thought he could take advantage of what I have been stripping in your
life. But I AM Sovereign and nothing, no not anything shall by any means
hurt you! I AM the Master Surgeon, and I restore, making all things
beautiful. Fear not, for I have done a good thing. Let the past go, remove
it. For now I bring to you My change. If you wince and stay buried in the
past, it hinders this new thing I want to do in your midst. Rejoice with Me,
and laugh hilariously, for all of heaven laughs with Me as we see the enemy
beneath your feet.
"The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together,
against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands
asunder, and cast away their cords from us. He that sitteth in the heavens
shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision." Ps 2:2-4 KJV
[end of Word to Ponder]
So how does this fit with a changing of the guards? I believe this powerful
change is going to filter down from the very top levels of government to the
very bottom of our personal lives. In the spiritual realm, in the places
where we have stood in the heat of battle, where we have earnestly interceded
and humbly repented, we are going to see long standing, territorial enemy
occupations being moved away and these places suddenly being occupied by
angels. The ramifications of such will filter down through every area of
life. He is moving out the old, making room for the new. He is cleaning the
filthy house, to fill it with His righteousness. He is removing the dross
and keeping the gold. He is blowing away the chaff to harvest the grain.
"But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears?
For He is like a refiner's fire and like launderer's soap. He will sit as a
refiner and a purifier of silver; He will purify the sons of Levi, and purge
them as gold and silver,
that they may offer to the LORD an offering in righteousness." (Mal 3:2-3
NKJV)
Even so, come Lord and do Your work among us.
We Need a Revival!
A. W. Tozer
And I will say to my soul, "Soul, you have many goods laid up for many
years; take your ease; eat, drink, and be merry." But God said to him,
"Fool! This night your soul will be required of you; then whose will
those things be which you have provided?" So is he who lays up
treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
-Luke 12:19-21
We need a revival! We need a revival of consecration to death, a
revival of happy abandonment to the will of God that will laugh at
sacrifice and count it a privilege to bear the cross through the heat
and burden of the day. We are too much influenced by the world and too
little controlled by the Spirit. We of the deeper life persuasion are
not immune to the temptations of ease and we are in grave danger of
becoming a generation of pleasure lovers.
Any who disagree with these conclusions are within their rights, and
I would be the last to deny them the privilege. But in the name of a
thousand struggling churches and disheartended pastors, may I not
plead for a little more loyalty to the local church during this
season of difficulty?
May God raise up a people who will consult their pleasures less and
the great need more. God Tells the Man Who Cares, 159-160.
"Lord, make me today one of those 'who will consult their pleasures
less and the great need more.' Amen."

"BE WILLING TO DIE FOR ME"
Stephen Hanson
7. He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; he was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a
sheep before her shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth.
8. By oppression and judgment he was taken away. And who can speak of his descendants? For he was cut off
from the land of the living; for the transgression of my people he was stricken.
9. He was assigned a grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death, though he had done no violence, nor
was any deceit in his mouth. Is. 53
"I was led like a sheep to the slaughter. I was assigned a grave and condemned to die. I gave up my life as a
ransom for many. I was mocked and ridiculed by many before my death on the cross. I rose from the dead and
am now giving new life unto many."
"Just as I was led to the slaughter, so will many of you be. It may not be the slaughter of a physical death, but it
will be the slaughter and the death of your own fleshly desires. It will be the death of your own ambitions. It will
be the death of your own lives that are apart from Me. I have asked you to die in order that you might live. I died
and was given new life. The life that I lived was given up for all of you. I AM asking that you give up your lives
for Me. Unless a seed falls to the ground it cannot produce fruit. So it must be with you as well. Give-up your
lives for your friends. Give-up your lives for your families. Be willing to pay the price for a servant. Be willing
to be mocked, and be willing to be ridiculed. Be willing to suffer at the hands of those around you who do not
understand you. If they did the same to Me, why should you expect anything different?"
"Sorrow will be turned into gladness. For afterwards, these things will birth a new thing. Travail in prayer, and
travail in laying down your lives for the brethren. The furnace of affliction will produce the multitude of
fruitfulness. Let my furnace burn away the dross and the impurities. Let my cross have its perfect work in you.
Let my death be identified with your own. Then you will come out of the graves with new life. Then you will be
assigned a portion with the great. Then you will be my vessels upon this earth. Then you will go onto those things
that I have assigned you to."

LOOSE TRUTH IN THE HEAVENS!
Alan Brooks
TO THE CHURCHES OF AMERICA:
The Lord would say Ephesians 6:12. It is time to pray, pray, and then
pray some more, for this next two month season is a very important
time for your country says the Lord. I am calling you to prayer. To
pray for Godly leaders and to pray that the Glory of the Lord would
shine forth from America. To not pray for or against anyone, but to
pray for the truth to brought forth in the heavens. To demand that
those things which are covered will become uncovered. To demand that
the hidden darkness will become exposed to the light. To call forth
the revival in the heavenly realms. To loose truth over this country.
THE TRUTH MAY MAKE MANY ANGRY
For I desire truth in the inward parts says the Lord, and I desire for
the hidden things which keep revival from coming be exposed. For the
Lord is about to release truth to this country, and the truth shall
set you free. The truth may make many people angry, but it will set
your country free. (I see a giant hypodermic needle with "truth"
written on it and the Lord is injecting it into the veins of our
country. And many people will be angry at the Lord about it). And
the truth will start the river of God flowing. (I see a waterfall
cascading over the steps of truth) And America will become a place
where "nothing is hidden" and truth will reign.
ANGEL WAITING OT LOOSE THIS FLOOD OF TRUTH OVER AMERICA
For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty in God for
pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments, and every high thing
that exalts itself against the knowledge of God. I have given you the
authority. It is now time to rise up and use it. (Lastly, I see a
picture of a large pipeline with an angel at the end just waiting to
loose this flood over America)
Finally, the word for you is "LOOSE TRUTH IN THE HEAVENS."

I HAVE CALLED YOU TO A PLACE OF EXTRAVAGANT BROKENNESS!
Dennis Drewlo
I saw a shelf with many dusty vessels. They were not much to look at.
They looked as if they had been sitting there for years. If you were
to look inside them, you could see that they were all filled to
various levels with costly oil. They appeared to be made of a porous,
yet absorbent material.
They were then taken off of the shelf, polished, and broken, and then
the costly oil was released.
"YOU ARE WAITING TO RELEASE WHAT I HAVE PLACED WITHIN YOU"
This is the word that I received with this:
I see, My children, that you are waiting. You are waiting to release
what I have placed within you. There is costly oil within you. It
cost My Son everything. There are people who need what I have placed
within you. Some of you are going through a breaking so that I can
release what is inside of you, for there are people who need what is
inside of you.
You must fall upon the Rock and be broken, or the Rock will fall upon
you.
ORDINARY VESSELS -- USED IN EXTRAORDINARY WAYS!
There is coming a day when I will use ordinary vessels in
extra-ordinary ways. I am about to take you "off of the shelf".
First, I will repair your brokenness. You must bring your brokenness
to Me. I am looking for vessels of humility who are not seeking to
make a name for themselves, but who are seeking to worship My name. I
am seeking faceless vessels who desire to seek My face.
I have called you to release the Fragrance of God wherever you are: in
Church, at home, at your places of work, and in your neighborhoods. I
have created you for such a time as this. You are not in the place
where you are by accident. I have a plan and you are in it.
I will anoint your eyes so that you will see what I have placed in
others, so that it can be released. I will anoint your eyes so that
you will see those who need what I have placed within you. I will
teach you to see the emptiness in people, so that I can fill them
through you.
EXTRAVAGANT BROKENNESS
I have called you to a place of extravagant brokenness in your
worship. My desire is that My presence would linger over you, but you
must be broken. I have called you to a place of sacrifice. Come to
the Throne, and we will make the exchange: everything in Me for
everything in you. Be warned: it will cost you your friends, your
time, your energy, your desires, and your very life. Have I not
written that those who lose their lives will find them? Your
sacrifice will be ridiculed by some, but it is pleasing to Me.
I have called you to a place of purity before Me. I have called you
to be pure in heart. Bring before Me your motives, your thoughts,
your desires, and your aspirations, and I will put them through the
Fire. I will burn out the dross. I will separate the wheat from the
chaff, and you will be like gold refined by fire.
Do not break My heart. Let your heart be broken. Keep yourselves
clothed in humility. Do not become bound by pride, for my desire is
to have pure Bride, without spot, wrinkle, or blemish.
"I HAVE CALLED YOU TO A PLACE OF UNITY"
I have called you to a place of unity. Do not fight amongst
yourselves. In times of frustration - PRAY. I am looking for a
unified Body. I am seeking a pure Bride, and not a wrinkled harem.
When you are tempted to criticize - PRAY. I have called you to be on
your knees, not up in arms. I have called you to be one unified Body,
not dismembered Body parts.
Keep asking. Keep seeking. Keep knocking. For I am about to release
what I have placed within you, My Church.
