At beginning of meeting Scripture Reading 4:4-7 - "Rejoice in the Lord always. Again, I say: rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to everyone. The Lord is near. Do not worry about anything, but in everything, by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of our God which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
Prophecy - "My beautiful children, tonight I'm pouring a special anointing upon each and every one of you. It is a great anointing of faith and I'm empowering you with my Spirit. My Spirit is flowing both in you, through you and around you. Look and see that I am your God, that I am alive and that I desire for you to be healed. My children, I know that there are many who are fearing, there are many that are anxious, worried and uncertain of whatever the future may come. But, tonight, my children, I am pouring upon you my peace, my reassurance that I am with you and that I have not abandoned you. And I want you to know how much I love you, how much you are the apple of my eye. Come, come to me in your woundedness, in your brokenness. There is no such thing as perfection. I know the weaknesses and the shame and the guilt that my children live with. And my heart pours out with mercy, compassion and understanding. So, do not fear and not to come to me. Again, I repeat, come to me as you are and I will pour my love and my mercy in abundant way that you have never experienced before."
Prophecy - "Tell my people, the time is now, the place is here in my presence. Open your ears, open your hearts. Listen to my words, my instructions. I have told you before that I want a closer, deeper relationship with you so I can make you my light in this world, to heal, to counsel, to teach and to preach to the lost and brokenhearted, the poor, the suffering. You are my disciples and I long to send you out to do my work, that I need your attention, your desire, your presence, my children. Come close to me in prayer. Do not be afraid. Come to meditation and come to my word. Fight the distractions of this world. Will you listen? The time is now. I love you."
Confirmation/Prophecy - I want to confirm the first prophecy: the outpouring of the Spirit during the praise and worship. I could feel just an abundance of joy, happiness, peace, all the gifts of the Spirit. And I heard the Lord say, "Come into my kingdom."
Scripture Reading Isaiah 43:18-19 - "But the Lord says, 'Do not cling to events of the past or dwell on what happened long ago. Watch for the new thing I am going to do. It is happening already - you can see it now! I will make a road through the wilderness and give you streams of water there.'"
Scripture Reading 1Kings 19:9-13 - "There he went into a cave and spent the night in it. Then the word of the Lord came to him saying, 'What are you doing here, Elijah?' He replied: ' I am filled with jealous zeal for the Lord, Saboath, because the sons of Israel have deserted you, broken down your altars and put your prophets to the sword. I am the only one left, and they want to kill me.' Then he was told, 'Go out and stand on the mountain before the Lord.' Then the Lord himself went by. There came a mighty wind, so strong it tore the mountains and shattered the rocks before the Lord - but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind came an earthquake - but the Lord God was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire - but the Lord God was not in the fire. And after the fire there came the sound of a gentle breeze. And when Elijah heard this, he covered his face with his cloak and went out and stood at the entrance of the cave."
Scripture Reading Psalm 84:1-4 - "How lovely are your dwelling places, O Lord of Hosts. My soul longs and even yearns for the courts of the Lord. My heart and my flesh sing for joy to the living God. The bird also has found a house, and the swallow a nest for herself where she may lay her young: even your altars, O Lord of Hosts, my King and my God! How blessed are those who dwell in your house, they are ever praising you."
Scripture Reading Psalm 49:5-12 - "Why should I fear in evil days when my wicked ensnarers ring me around? They trust in their wealth; the abundance of their riches is their boast. Yet in no way can a man redeem himself, or pay his own ransom to God; too high is the price to redeem one's life; he would never have enough to remain alive always and not see destruction. For he can see that wise men die, and likewise the senseless and the stupid pass away, leaving to others their wealth. Their tombs will remain their houses forever, their dwellings throughout generations, though they had called lands by their names. Nevertheless man being in honor does not abide: he is like the beasts that perish."
Something struck me while we were singing praise songs and it was one verse that just stood out: "If we rend our hearts, he will heal our land."
Vision/Prophetic sense - I had an image of all of us putting on the full armor of God as it says in Eph 6:12. Do not be fooled. We need to put on the full armor of God every day as we leave our homes, as we leave our work. These were the words that were coming to me and the reason at the same time. As we have the armor of God on, as we open our mouths, I saw pages of the bible coming out of our mouths, and it was that power going to fight; it's through the Word of God. We need to put the Word of God into our mouths, into our hearts, so when the time comes, we will know which Word to use. The Lord reminded me of something I heard yesterday and that is, when Jesus was in the desert, he used the Word of God any time that he was tempted. He replied with the Word of God.
Leslie spoke on "Praying and Interpreting the Psalms". The Psalms were designed to carry, express and shape our emotions. We can always find ourselves in the Psalms. There are various themes in the Psalms. i.e. Praise, loneliness, love, sorrow, shame, exultation, hope, brokenheartedness, confidence, anger, fear, gratitude, peace, grief and pain. Many authors of the Psalms. Approximately 73 were written by David. We went through an exercise with Psalm 28. Psalms for healing and recovery: Psalm 39:9, 14-15; Psalm 147:3; Psalm 6:2-4; Psalm 107:19-20; Psalm 73:26; Psalm 41:4.
Psalm 56:8 - "You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle."
The last words of Jesus on the cross were the first verse of Psalm 22 and the Jewish community would have known the words in the rest of the Psalm. They would have realized that they just witnessed what was in the Psalm.....Jesus was God.
God wink is God communicating with us when we need to hear from him. It's a wink of comfort. His words are evidence that prayer has real and strong power to change your life. It's coincidence or answered prayer. It's a direct and personal message from God to you, a God wink that everything is going to be alright. It's reassurance that I am never alone and uncertainty will end in certainty.
Lori Ann shared that her son's family was coming from Saskatoon and she was trying to get everything ready and her tap which had been dripping for awhile was now running and filling an ice cream pail every five minutes with hot water. She was afraid there wouldn't be enough hot water for the family when they got here. So, she said a prayer, called a plumber. He looked at the tap and he went outside to his truck. Now, this tap is over twenty years old. He comes in and says, "Look what I found." He had the inners of this particular tap in his truck. She thanked God. " I called out and he heard me." (Psalm 138).
