CUTTING THE CORDS AND SAILING ONWARD IN THE NEW HEBREW YEAR...
John Mark Pool
A New Gate
While on a ministry break for the past couple of months, the Lord began to give me what I call "saga" words or "to be continued" words. Thus, God finally gave the completion of this word during a recent conference at the Glory of Zion Outreach Center in Denton, Texas. After this meeting, all the other words that had "to be continued" were released. God told me that this is the New Day in His Kingdom--5768 has arrived and we are going into a New Thing!
This is a new day, in a new way, and at a new gate (gait). ("Gait" is a manner of walking, stepping or running.) This is a time to move ahead. This is a word to encourage us to cut the past losses and move into the forefront for God's Kingdom assignment for 2008. We are now in a New Gate and a New Gait--a New Door and a New Step! This means we are getting new keys for new assignments, for new gates and for new lands, and we will be aligning with a new synchronized march of the "Gait" of God.
Psalm 2:1-3, "Why are the nations in an uproar, and the peoples devising a vain thing? The kings of the earth take their stand, and the rulers take counsel together against the LORD and against His Anointed, saying, 'Let us tear their fetters apart, and cast away their cords from us!'"
God said to me as clear as if we were speaking together in an audible conversation, "Cut the ties of the past to sail into your future!" The Lord is telling us that we are creatures easily affected by "comfort zones." We must move out of these comfort zones and venture out into the deep. We don't necessarily like the unknown, the uncertainty of new territory. Yet, that is just the way it has always been with God or He would not have given us Israel's journey, along with so many other patriarchs of faith to show us how we, too, must live.
My Spies Equipped for Battle
I heard the Lord say into my spiritual ear, "You have cut the ties of the ship full of spies!" What? Yes, spies, but not what you think. These are good spies! "They are MY COMPANY OF CALEBS AND JOSHUAS! Do not "despise" a small beginning. These are My Spiritual Special Forces." (Dual meaning is to not put the spies off the ship: do not "de-spies".)
This is a group of well-trained and hungry youth that have a heart to go into the New Land on a New Assignment. This young army will go out into the ocean in a raging storm to find that new ground God promised. They are seeking the will and the way of God as no generation has ever done before. They are the ones that won't allow any indifference to tame their pursuit of God's move. This group has gone into the Promised Land of God and they have begun to stake their claim for Kingdom Property! This group that has set sail is now taking every shoreline they touch. I heard the Lord say, "This is a NEW SHIP!"
This ship is set out for battle and is now sailing across America, gathering forces for the all-out destruction of enemy strongholds that have taken out previous generations. It has specialized equipment and is set on course for Warring the Word of God over the high seas, taking every harbor it lands in, as God directs. This ship is smaller than most battlewagons, but bigger than a stealthy destroyer ship and has the enemy very upset at this moment. It does not plan on going back to a comfortable homeport. This ship is taking nations and it's named "GOD CALLED!"
Cutting off the Past, Prepping for the Future
God has told us to cut asunder all the bands of the wickedness that have been placed upon us by the spirit of religion. We must cut off the old binders in order to sail into a new vessel that is lean from fasting, praying and obeying the voice of the Lord. We will now see the Kingdom of God advance--yet the battles are going to intensify.
We must be going into this New Hebrew year of 2008 with an attitude of cutting away the bonds that so easily set us back. It is now a time to "cut your losses and move ahead!" Let us move ahead and be the seasoned, battle-trained people to assist in this young, unstoppable army taking new ground for God's Kingdom. It will take both seasoned, older veterans that are proven in rank and order in the Kingdom to be alongside this vigilant regiment to bring in apostolic wisdom, timing and orders. God is doing something we have never seen!
Cutting the cords means not looking back, and furthermore indicates going into the New Year and adopting a NEW DAY without any contingency plans. The plan is simply: "Do not go backward--take the land that is ours!" In other words, we have only one plan--WIN! WE WIN--NO MATTER WHAT!
We must cut asunder the wrong ties and the bonds that have so easily set us back in our past journey. We cannot carry the burdens of our past with us as "extra baggage" that will serve to weigh us down in the battle for new Kingdom territory. We will now move into a land of Canaan as we have cut the ties of the past and will begin to occupy our new territory for the Lord. Do not look into your past to view your future!
I heard the Lord then say, "You are singing a NEW SONG OF THE LORD IN A NEW LAND. YOU ARE MAKING NEW CHORDS IN PLACE OF THE ENEMY'S PLAN FOR DISCORD! Now usher in the Song of the Heavens into the Land that flows with the Milk and Honey of My Presence!"
Gender Prejudice in the Kingdom is Over
"How long will you go here and there, O faithless daughter? For the LORD has created a new thing in the earth--a woman will encompass a man." Jeremiah 31:22
Many believe this is only for Israel to come back to God, yet in my studies, I believe it to be a multipurpose statement to include women on the frontline who give birth now to leadership and will bring into the Kingdom of God fresh new ideas. God is doing a new thing and we must cut loose those old religious binders of the past. Yes, women will indeed give us the understanding of "birthing" a New Thing.
Which of you men can help me explain birthing by your natural experiences? I believe women can! Women, too, can pastor churches, run ministries, pray for the sick and cast out devils. Come ahead, women, and take your rightful place on the frontlines as God leads you. Behold, God is doing a NEW THING. We must indeed deal with it now. Call me revolutionary! You are right!
Yes, this is a time in which the Lord is doing a New Thing in a New Year of 5768 and onwards into the year of 2008, which will literally bring a New Day that will surely stay! We are marching to His orders to take new land.
New Birth, New Land, New Day, New Way--and all the old is cut away! The Lord says, "Behold, for I will do a NEW THING!"
THE CRYSTAL SEA
by Betty Seiley 9/29
This vision and word came forth as a "suddenly" during an anointed worship service on this date.
We worship You, Lord, we worship You, in the beauty of Your Holiness. This one thing we have desired, that we might dwell in the house of the Lord forever, that we might dwell in the house of the Lord forever, and behold the beauty of the Lord, and behold the beauty of the Lord. Psalm 27:4
O, Lord, your beauty is so magnificent. Your beauty is glistering white, O, Lord, it’s all the colors in the rainbow, it’s like an emerald rainbow above your Throne, O Lord, O, Father God, O Father God. All of heaven is alive with excitement, with love, with worship, with giving of all of oneself. Life flows from heaven because You are the Giver of Life. Life flows to this fallen world from heaven. It flows from the River of Life that comes from beneath Your throne. That pure clear and sparkling water, that pure sparkling water, O my God, how beautiful it is! The Sonlight dances on that sparkling water. The Lamb’s light dances on the sparkling water, it looks like it’s made of diamonds. It looks like it’s made of crystals that do not come from this earth. It looks like the crystal sea. The crystal sea is before your throne, O Lord, and the multitudes stand on the crystal sea, my God.
Thank you Lord it’s even like we’re there with them tonight, O, my God, O, my God, joy unspeakable, Lord, joy that can’t be contained within ourselves. You said we’d have it, Lord. You said we’d have joy unspeakable and full of glory.
This is that, this is that, this is that, which the prophet Joel spoke of, Lord. That in the last days, in the last days, Lord that you would pour out you Spirit upon all flesh, Lord, all flesh, Lord. You have and we know you will. Complete your pouring out, O Lord, complete pouring out. Pour out that breaker anointing, Lord, the anointing that breaks the yoke, it’s the anointing that breaks the yoke. You break the yokes in our lives. It’s the anointing of the Holy Ghost that breaks the yoke. Break every yoke by the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Break every yoke of fear and doubt, break every yoke of the enemy, break every yoke, in Jesus’ Name, by the Holy Ghost.
We stand on the crystal sea tonight. O, thank You, Jesus, thank You for opening the door. You are the Door. Thank You for opening the door to the throne room, Lord, through the veil of Your flesh, rent for us, that we might come into the Presence of the Father, into Your Presence. There’s none like our Father, none like Jesus, none like the Holy Spirit. You alone are God, You alone are God, You alone are God!
How sweet you are, O God, O God, how sweet you are, how sweet you are! Your word is like honey on our lips, Your word is like honey on our lips.
You are coming for us. Come, Lord Jesus, come. Help us to keep our lamps trimmed and our lamps full of the oil of the Holy Spirit, so that we will have enough oil. You, Lord Jesus, are the One who has the oil, the oil of the Holy Spirit, You are the one who replenishes the lamp, You are the source, the lamp, O God, the Light of the world, the Name of Jesus, the Blood of Jesus.
We want our lamps to be lit for you, O Lord. We put down our stakes, we put down our stakes, tonight, O Lord, we will be ready. We will not let the enemy deter us, we will be ready when You come for us, with Your help and Your strength. The cry, “Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!” has been going out for decades. The signs of your coming are all around, on every hand. Fill us with greater desire for You and Your Holy Spirit, Lord.
Draw people by the millions and millions and millions to Yourself. Draw Israel to Yourself, save her, O Lord, save her soul, through faith in Jesus, her Messiah, O, Lord! Let it be so, Lord!
We stand in awe, we worship You Father, and we seem so small. We thank You Father for all that Jesus has done for us. Saving us, healing us, carrying away our sins…All yokes are removed from the necks of Your children, by the anointing of the Holy Spirit. You make us to dance and to laugh and to give praises and honor to God, our Father, by the Holy Spirit.

Dear List,
The Lord gave me this last Sunday. Thought I would share.
The Seed- Prophecy given 9/23
You are a Royal priesthood, My own special kin, authorities of Heaven to do My bidding and speak My Word. You are a Holy-Spirit- filled Army going forth wielding the Sword of My Spirit in every situation, in every aspect of your life and the lives of others.
This is the appointed time and season for change. You are to bear down, press, in, and bring forth that which I have put in you. There is no room in the inn for what you are about to birth and bring forth. No room in your culture or in the so called religious system. For there is a new mantle upon you, a new ministry. It looks different, it is wrapped differently. Now is the time for you to agree with your purpose and destiny, The heavens are shifting, a crucial time in the Spirit. In this season My power, My favor is upon you. You are birthing miracles, birthing your destiny. There is a radical transfer of My miracle power upon and through each one as you become My messenger and speak forth that which I put in your mouth. And that which I put in your hand. And that which I have given you that you will tread upon.
This is a season of Divine revelation, a season of removing the old garments, the old wineskins, the old religious mindsets for they are failing. A new breed of freshly anointed vessels is here. They are pregnant with My Spirit, like a young virgin. You are becoming My Word. Again I say there is a shifting of power. A Spirit of Love pure intimacy of the heart is going forth in you. Embrace everything that I have for you and for those around you.
For I am showing up in a Big, Big wave of glory. This is beyond logical comprehension. You are overshadowed with My Grace. This is beyond your ability. Go with the wave; let Me accomplish that, which I have spoken in you.
Sing to the seed within you, speak and water it. The Lord Your God is with You. This is not a time for limited thinking, limited goals or limited vision. THIS IS TOO BIG FOR YOU. The sperm of God is within you. It has been watered and has grown to maturity. Now is the time for birthing. Embrace this fact. It is not business as usual. Out of you shall come great rivers of living waters, great waves of My glory. Are you ready, are you prepared?
Dr. Mary Sue
The blessing of the Lord makes one rich and adds no sorrow Prov. 10:22
I WANT TO TABERNACLE WITH YOU
by Priscilla Van Sutphin 9/29
Lev 23:34-36 NKJV
34 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying: 'The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days to the LORD. 35 On the first day there shall be a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work on it. 36 For seven days you shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD. On the eighth day you shall have a holy convocation, and you shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD. It is a sacred assembly, and you shall do no customary work on it.
Zech 14:16-18 NKJV The Nations Worship the King
And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles . 17 And it shall be that whichever of the families of the earth do not come up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, on them there will be no rain. 18 If the family of Egypt will not come up and enter in, they shall have no rain; they shall receive the plague with which the LORD strikes the nations who do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles .
“ Beloveds of My heart, I want to tabernacle with you. I want you to know My manifest presence always with you. I gave you the Holy Spirit so that you would not feel alone, but I want you to be My holy habitation. I want you to hear my voice, more than you want to hear My voice. I want you to focus on Me, not just in the mornings before work, but throughout the day. I want you to feel SECURE in My love for you, that you would never doubt My love for you. Just like lovers think of each other throughout the day, wondering what is happening with the other, I want you to know, that I am ALWAYS thinking of you. I never have my eyes off of you. I know every little thing that happens, every thought you think.
Come away with ME, and let me hold you in My arms of love. Let me show you great and marvelous things you do not know.
John 14:16-18 NKJV And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper,
that He may abide with you forever — 17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells
with you and will be in you. 18 I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you.
I am not a God afar off, but I am near at hand. I told you that if you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. So if you are abiding, your prayers will be answered, and you can rest assured that I hear every prayer you pray. I always answer, but not always the way you want. If you pray in the Spirit according to My will, then of course those words become LIFE, for you are praying MY WILL, and what I speak will become.
Jer 23:23-24 NKJV "Am I a God near at hand," says the LORD, "And not a God afar off ? 24 Can anyone hide himself in secret places, So I shall not see him?" says the LORD; "Do I not fill heaven and earth?" says the LORD.
I want to be so ONE with you, that your thoughts conform to My thoughts, and your heart conforms to My heart, and your actions conform to My will. Union with ME is only possible if we have communion together. It only comes from your thoughts being taken captive, so that you no longer are distracted by the world and all the distractions of the enemy. It is only in My presence that that can improve. It is time in My presence that can never be wasted. For I AM the SOURCE of all you need. To become one, means you cannot serve ME, and mammon at the same time. You cannot serve your own fleshly self life, and Me. You cannot serve money, and ME at the same time. So take every thought captive beloveds. Recognize what is glorifying Me, and what is glorifying self. To have that discernment means time in the WORD.
John 8:31-32 NKJV The Truth Shall Make You Free
Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, "If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. 32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."
As you learn to abide through MY GRACE working in you, then you will bear much fruit. This is a great fruit bearing season you are in. I am pruning and correcting, testing and trying. I don’t want you left out, I do not take delight in cutting off unfruitful branches. I do all I can in a way I know best fits each person and according to the call on their lives. Give mercy and you will have mercy. Give to others as you wish to receive. Do not think to hoard up for yourselves alone in this hour, for I will judge those who show no mercy without mercy.
Remember that I can provide out of My storehouses anything that is needed. There is nothing I cannot do, though many are doubting and unbelieving that I would. Without faith it is impossible to please ME, remember ? So EXPECT good things from My hand, for I will do many supernatural things to provide for those who display faith in MY ABILITIES.
Always remember that I love you, and though I am judging the world, and I am pruning My church, I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS. I will never, never, never leave you alone. “
John 15:4 NKJV Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.
John 15:7-8 NKJV If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.
John 15:9-10 NKJV Love and Joy Perfected - "As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. 10 If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.

6 PROPHECY: / Daily Prophecy Corner / ANGELS by Ras Robinson 9/29 on: Today at 06:26:26am
WHAT THE LORD IS SAYING TODAY – September 29, 2007 – “Angels”
Ras Robinson
Sep 29 2007 08:52AM
September 29, 2007 (English y en Espanol-al final). Angels. Be watching for strangers. I will soon bring right before your eyes an angel sent by Me. At first, you will neither detect nor recognize this heavenly gift to you. This angel will bring My messages, provisions and breakthroughs. Some things you thought could never be will be unlocked to you. This stranger will end up being a blessing over and over again according to the way in which you receive and pursue. Be gracious and let your hospitality be made known. Bring in the stranger and give the warmth of My love. Great will be your reward. Angels.
Hebrews 13:2 "Don't forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it!"

Word From Yerushalaim

www.wordfromyerushalaim.com
As we begin the Lord's feast of Succot (booths or tabernacles) 2007, here is a little bit of history that took place exactly seventy years ago. Seventy year cycle is biblically significant, plus the fact that this year also marks the 40th anniversary of Israel supernaturally regaining Judea, Samaria, Gaza and Jerusalem. But not much has changed in the past seventy years. The nations did not want a Jewish Israel in 1937 but thank God Israel had a leader that said nothing shall stop us from coming home. Today in 2007 the nations still do not want an Israel, The only difference is our national leaders are working hard during this festival to finalize the plan to remove Jews from the land and give it to our sworn enemies. In prayer we can stand with Ben Gurion's declaration:
"David Ben-Gurion rose to leave. Gravely, he said, "High Commissioner, there are two comments I wish to make before I go."
"And what are they?"
"One is, we shall fight you tooth and nail on the immigration issue. For us it is a matter of life or death."
"And the other?"
A sudden twinkle sparkled in the Old Man's eyes. "What you said about believing in miracles - it's a valid point. In this country if you don't believe in miracles, you're not a realist."

Bygone Days: Meeting on the Hill of Evil Counsel
Sep 25, 2007 20:19
By YEHUDA AVNER
In southeast Jerusalem there is a rise called the Hill of Evil Counsel, and on its flat top there is a site called the Field of Blood, so named because it was purchased with the 30 pieces of silver - the blood money - which Judas reportedly received for betraying Jesus. Here, on that spot, where the panorama of Jerusalem is at its most spectacular, stands Government House, a colonial pile built at a time when it was assumed that the very appearance of a residence of a representative of the British Crown had to proclaim the majesty of the Throne. [Today it serves as a UN headquarters, and is bordered by East Talpiot].
On the festival of Succot 1937 it was occupied by High Commissioner Sir Arthur Grenfell Wauchope, a moderate, solid, reasonable and utterly phlegmatic Englishman who, while ostensibly governing the country on behalf of the League of Nations for the creation of a Jewish National Home, was actually running it as a colony of the Empire. And, in so doing, he found himself facing an escalating Arab antagonism that expanded in direct proportion to the expansion of Jewish immigration.
At the time in question, Jews were desperately fleeing Hitler's Germany and Sir Arthur, having tolerated a significant influx, found he was grasping thistles and thorns that were daggers to the touch.
WHITEHALL, intensely rattled by the situation, resolved to settle the Palestine question once and for all by establishing a royal commission of enquiry headed by one Lord Peel. His probes raised a raft of questions, impelling David Ben-Gurion, then political head of the Palestine Jewish community, to seek an urgent meeting with Sir Arthur Wauchope.
"Happy Succot," beamed the High Commissioner from behind the solid protection of his oak desk in his vast study as Ben-Gurion was ushered in. "Wherever I go I see lots of pretty little booths. Take a seat. Ah, here's the tea."
An orderly carrying a tray of silver and china had entered. "Pour for us, Reggie," said the high commissioner heartily. And then, "You've met my orderly, Reggie? Know how I got him? I was in Mesopotamia and a bloody brigand slashed me with a knife - right across the buttocks. I fell straight into Reggie's arms and he's been with me ever since. Right, Reggie?"
"Yes, sir," said the dour orderly solemnly, pouring the tea with fastidious care.
SITTING OPPOSITE each other across the expanse of the titanic desk, the two principals presented a striking study in contrasts. David Ben-Gurion, squat, short, pugnacious, with beetling eyebrows and white tufts of hair, was dressed in an open-necked khaki shirt and tan cotton trousers, wrinkled and baggy. Sir Arthur, a tall slim man, with a long, creased face topped by gray hair combed straight back and parted down the middle, Edwardian-style, was attired in a dapper Prince of Wales pearl-gray linen jacket with a waistcoat to match.
"Now, how can I help you?" Wauchope began, knowing full well he was about to engage in a tricky egg dance in his attempt to placate Jew and Arab alike.
"You can help me by further increasing the rate of Jewish immigration from Nazi Germany," answered Ben-Gurion gravely. "Their situation is intolerable. Everybody wants the Jews out, nobody wants them in."
The high commissioner's expression went somber. "His Majesty's Government is cognizant of their predicament," he said. "In 1933 when Herr Hitler came to power, there were 234,000 Jews in this country. Now, in September 1937, we have" - he opened a folder and ran a finger down a column - "we have 431,000. That's almost double the number, and I think that's jolly good going. Truth to tell, my dear fellow," he beamed with sudden gusto, "Palestine is filling up so fast there soon won't be room to swing a cat.
"In fact, I would say we've pretty well carried out our mandate, don't you think? The Jewish National Home already exists. You surely can't ask us to do much more than that."
The Zionist leader gave the high commissioner an I-don't-believe-it stare, and retorted, "That, Sir Arthur, is ludicrous. There's no such thing as an end to building a national home. The job is never done. Every immigrant carries in his suitcase jobs for 10 more."
"Well, I'm sorry you take it that way," retorted the high commissioner, "because I have to tell you in all candor that my foreign secretary, Anthony Eden, has cabled me suggesting I've been overdoing it a bit."
"Overdoing it?" Ben-Gurion's lips pressed into displeasure.
"Oh, yes. In this last year alone we let in 62,000 Jews from Germany. And the point is, you would be doing me a great favor vis-a-vis my bosses in London if you'd agree to lay off for a while. Zionism would gain the favor of His Majesty's Government if your people took the initiative and offered to suspend immigration of your own free will - just for a while."
"What on earth are you talking about?" Ben-Gurion was sitting at the edge of his chair, his face distorted with anger.
"I mean, if you lay off for a while, the Arabs will end their violence, Parliament will stop asking fidgety questions, and I will be awfully indebted to you personally. What do you say?"
"I say, preposterous!" exploded Ben-Gurion.
SIR ARTHUR Wauchope's expression spread into deep disappointment. "Really - is that the best you can do? I mean to say, here am I putting forward an eminently reasonable case for a temporary immigration suspension, and here you are turning me down flat without even a pretense of reflection. All I'm asking for is a moratorium, no more."
"And I tell you no such moratorium is possible," fumed Ben-Gurion. "Is a country an artificial thing that you can stop its growth by decree? Isn't it clear that stopping immigration means severe economic depression? Isn't it clear that the German Jews are in dire straits? And how will the Arabs be disarmed during this moratorium? And how will it be ensured there are no more riots? And how are the Arabs to be educated to future coexistence so that immigration may be renewed?
"The idea is ludicrous. It's out of the question."
Sir Arthur returned an expression of hurt innocence: "There's no need to be so caustic, old chap," he said. "All I'm suggesting is a bit of a breather."
Slightly less prickly, Ben-Gurion said, "Sir Arthur, we recognize that you have been trying to do your best. But your government must understand: Zionism is the national liberation movement of the Jewish people. You can't switch it on and off just like that. Zionism is a revolution of Jewish history. And a revolution is like riding a bicycle. If you stop, you'll fall off. We must not stop. We must not fall off."
"I'm not telling you to fall off, old boy. I'm just suggesting you take your foot off the pedal for a while, that's all."
"And I'm telling you the plight of the Jews in Germany is desperate. They must get out. The plight of the Jews in Poland is no less grave. They have been ground down for a century. Not one of them would understand our agreeing to stopping immigration at their expense."
"They might if it stopped the bloodshed here in Palestine."
Ben-Gurion lifted his chin, met the Crown representative's icy gaze, and, with unrestrained passion, fired off volley after volley: "What you are saying, sir, is intolerable. Your attitude is an invitation to disaster. Palestine is not yours to dispose of. It is not a British colony. It is not part of the British Empire. You are in Palestine by the grace of the League of Nations, which gave you the mandate to carry out the Balfour Declaration. That Declaration says you are to establish here a National Home for the Jewish people. Your task is to carry out that Declaration. If your government violates that pledge you will no longer have any moral right to govern this land. The heart and soul of the Balfour Declaration is Jewish immigration."
"Sorry you take it that way," said the high commissioner coolly. "There is a limit to how many newcomers this country can take, and we're fast reaching that limit."
Stupefied, Ben-Gurion, exclaimed, "And I'm telling you that by the time we've built up this land there will be room for millions."
"Millions?"
"Yes."
"How many millions?"
"Five, six, seven."
"Jews?"
"Yes."
"And how many Arabs?"
"By then about two million, I suppose."
"So you envisage a time when this country will have a population of millions?"
"I do. Allow us to bring in our people in the tens of thousands and our pioneers will turn this country into a gateway to Paradise."
High Commissioner Wauchope regarded David Ben-Gurion with a cynical gaze, and said skeptically: "I am well aware your pioneers are a Hymn to Nature, but I would hardly call this terrain a gateway to Paradise. It has insufficient water to begin with. It's half desert."
"True, but let me tell you what we are going to do with this half desert."
David Ben-Gurion leaned across the desk, palms fisted, chest out, a fire of zeal in his eyes and a thrill of elation in his voice. "The origin of the word Paradise, Sir Arthur, is the Hebrew word, pardess - a watered grove. And our pioneers will yet create a wonderful pardess out of this desert."
The Zionist leader leaned back with excessive satisfaction, and the British colonial official's eyebrows were markedly arched when he chirruped, "Now, I don't wish to sound disrespectful, but hyperbole is fine for speech-making, not for policy-making - unless, of course, you believe in miracles."
David Ben-Gurion rose to leave. Gravely, he said, "High Commissioner, there are two comments I wish to make before I go."
"And what are they?"
"One is, we shall fight you tooth and nail on the immigration issue. For us it is a matter of life or death."
"And the other?"
A sudden twinkle sparkled in the Old Man's eyes. "What you said about believing in miracles - it's a valid point. In this country if you don't believe in miracles, you're not a realist."

8 PROPHECY: / Visions and Dreams / VISION OF HIS GLORY by Frances Lloyd 9/29 on: September 28, 2007, 11:01:19 PM
Vision of His Glory
by Frances Lloyd
Daily Golden Footprints
Saturday, September 29, 2007
After spending many hours "in the Spirit" the Lord gave me a vision or a dream, I am not sure which. I saw a large glass box. It has a gold or silver frame with clear glass walls. Inside of the box looked like golden clouds. It was stuffed full with what looked like shimmering golden angel hair. It was beautiful. On the outside of the box there were small metal "feet" on each of the four corners. The lid had a golden clasp. Outside of the golden box (which was as big as a house) there were four angels on each corners. The angels were holding something I thought to be a kind of weapon. I was looking at the weapons trying to see what it was when one angel replied that the weapons were for me before I had a chance to speak. The angel said that the glory was in the box and that I just needed to come a get all that I want. Before I could ask how, the angel spoke as they heard my thoughts, "you can get it by repentance and seeking God with all your heart."
The Lord has been telling us that during this Jewish festival of Atonement, we, His church are in a season of repentance and a season of His glory. God is giving us His glory. He is calling for a recommitment to Him. He is calling us to seek Him with all our hearts. It is time to be sure that everything is right between God and you.
I started to search out the word glory to help me understand. From the Strong's Bible dictionary, I got these definitions…
An ample garment, to be covered amply
The opposite of His glory would be Ichobod (His glory has departed)
Promise, provision, purpose
Beauty, honor, majesty
A mantle, a robe
To shine, to give light, worthy of our praise
This last one talks about illuminating His Word making it His Rhema to us… With all these manifestations of His glory, praise is inevitable. From these definitions I would determine that His glory represents (1) His robe of righteousness. It represents (2) His presence. It represents (3) His promises or gifts to us… (4)His provision to us… (5) His purpose for giving His life in the first place… (6) The beauty and the majesty of His presence… (7) The robe and mantle definition speaks of His gift of righteousness to us and ( our duty to follow His will. The last definition represents (9) the giving of light, His Word, or (10) correctness, (Correctness is incapable of error, His Word is incapable of error, He is incapable of error). (11) He is worthy of our praise.
I am reminded how in some countries they have kingdoms instead of presidents. They worship the royal families. Jesus speaks of himself this way, because people understand that even though His glory cannot be compared to anything tangible in this world. In Old Testament times, a king was counted as the greater when he gave better gifts. Solomon's riches were not to be compared with any other kingdom. The kingdom might have seemed great until Solomon showed up. Solomon's riches are a type and shadow of God's riches. Nothing could remotely compare to His. Things might seem important until Jesus shows up in all His glory. Nothing is to be compared. He gives the greatest gifts of all kingdoms. He is the richest King. What He bestows upon us is phenomenal.
He is glorifying us in this season of atonement. He is showing up in all His glory and splendor and majesty. You can't help but break out in praise and adoration. In His presence all needs are met. All promises yet unfulfilled get fulfilled. All things not yet supplied are supplied. Make sure everything is under the blood. He can't bless sin.
He is our Lord! He is our King! He is our every thing! Get ready for Him to show Himself strong in your behalf. (2 Chronicles 16:9a) For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show him self strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him… Keep seeking Him. Be sure that you heart is perfect toward Him. Do you want Him more than anything? Is He first priority?
In Him,

Release your all
September 28, 2007
Release your all to me. Don't hold on to anything. Let me have your most precious assets and material blessings. Hand them over to me. My beloved, I dont want you to hold on to anything besides me. I don't want you to make an idol out of the material blessings I have given you.
Be like my servant, Abraham who was willing to give his only legitimate son, Isaac to me. He was willing to sacrifice him to me. For this reason I blessed him. My beloved, I want to bless you too but you must be willing to surrender all. Even to your last farthing. You must be like the widow of zarephath who willingly surrendered her last food to me. She was blessed because she gave out of her last food to my prophet.
My children, be willing to share for in sharing, you increase in my love. Be willing to share for in sharing, you increase in my blessings for your life. Go from the realm of zero to hero as you share. You must be willing to let go.
I have trusted you with plenty. They are not meant for you but for my kingdom. Give your all to me and I would make you a blessing to the nations. I would make you a delightsome land if you obey.
I desire those who have made covenant with me by sacrifice. They have touched my heart. I will bless them. I will open doors for them even where they are not qualified to enter. I will bless them and enlarge them because they have given to me.
Sacrifices touch me more than anything. I was moved by the sacrifice of my son`s death. I was moved by what he did on the cross, therefore I chose to honour him with the greatest crown and gave him the greatest name. So that at the mention of the name of ' JESUS ' every knee would bow and every tongue would confess.
Give your all to me and you will surely be blessed too. I would honour you in heaven and on earth but If you fail to honour me with your blessing I would turn your blessing into a curse. If you would love the blessing more than I, the giver I would make life difficult for you and I will purnish you severely. Therefore be warned and turn unto me with your sacrifices and offerings. Bring them all to my storehouse and I would enlarge you. Yea, I will bless you and you would be blessed.

Prophecy For Today
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
September 28, 2007
Even though this is a little long, I hope you will read this through and that the Lord will speak to you personally as you do. I believe the Lord has asked me to also include two prophecies that were sent out earlier. They follow this word.
Terrible Troubles and Great Glory
I believe the Lord would have me share with you a summary of what the Lord has been saying to me over the last year or so regarding what is now upon us, combined with what I sense the Lord is saying to me today.
Then the Kingdom of Heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the Bridegroom. Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them, but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. Matthew 25:1-4
Then He showed me another vision. I saw the Lord standing beside a wall that had been built using a plumb line. He was using a plumb line to see if it was still straight. And the Lord said to me, “Amos, what do you see?” I answered, “A plumb line.” And the Lord replied, “I will test my people with this plumb line. I will not longer ignore all their sins. Amos 7:7-8 NLT
God has spoken in the recent past of the shaking and cleansing that was to take place in the people of God. He is now using His standard, His plumb line to reveal where we are. He is showing all who are out of alignment with His standard – His holy Word. And He is tearing out what has been built to the wrong standard. The best thing we can do is ask the Lord to reveal any hidden thing in our hearts, to repent and seek the Lord as never before.
Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. Point out anything I me that offends You, and lead me along the path of everlasting life. Ps. 139:23-25 NLT
God continues to call His people to repentance while He calls the world to Himself; and to speak about the coming troubles, calamities and disasters which are to occur simultaneously with great manifestations of God’s glory and His presence. We will walk through all manner of trials, tests, persecutions, trouble, calamities and widespread disasters. But…. But we will also see great revival, and marvelous pouring out of God’s Spirit with signs and wonders, with miracles and salvation, deliverance, healing and restoration multiplied. Yes, there will be great trouble but God will deliver His people out of them all as they depend solely upon Him.
God is both judging sin, wickedness, evil doing, and disobedience in His people while at the same time rewarding His faithful obedient followers with long awaited answers to many prayers, with fulfillment of His promises, with favor and power to overcome. During this time He is exposing and
bringing down those who are in sin and disobedience. And He is lifting up and launching out many who have ministered faithfully to God in the background at the same time. While some ministries are being exposed and brought out of the limelight, while some are falling in failure other new ministries will be launched and sent out in powerful anointing – without titles and familiar names – moving out in the name of the Lord.
While on the surface it may look that evil is multiplying and darkness is increasing, God is coming in visitation and brining revival and growth, life and power to His people to do His will. But we must be ready to stand the test of the plumb line. We must meet God’s standard. As we seek God, ask Him to reveal anything that is unholy, or ungodly, to reveal all that is not of Him, reveal if we have erred from His truth, as we repent, He will cleanse us and use us as He wills in this season.
I believe the Lord is saying, “Do not be confused or confounded by the seeming paradox. Trust Me as never before while standing firmly on the solid rock of the Truth of My Word. Do not be taken unaware My Word is full of advance warning and instructions concerning the times at hand. Nothing is a surprise to Me.“
The Spirit clearly says that in later times come will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. I Tim. 4:1-2 NIV
19 Many evils confront the [consistently] righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all.
22 The Lord redeems the lives of His servants, and none of them who take refuge or trust in Him shall be condemned or held guilty. Ps. 34:19, 22 AMP
And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions. Joel 2:28 NIV
In the last days, the mountain of the Lord’s house will be the highest of all – the most important place on earth. It will be raised above the other hills, and people from all over the world will stream there to worship. People from many nations will come and say, “Come let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of Jacob’s God. There He will teach us His ways, and we will walk in His paths. Isaiah 2:-2-3 TLB
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup runs over. Psalm 23:5
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9

Prophecy
Repent Now
For weeks and weeks now the Lord has continued to speak to me concerning his call to His people and to the nations – a call to repentance. He keeps saying to me to tell His people to repent. Then today He spoke this word to me:
“ My people – Repent! Repent now. Repent – you – yes all of you. Repent and seek My face. Seek My wisdom and begin to walk in the holiness of God. I am calling My people to purity and consecration to Me. Set yourself apart. Dedicate yourself and your life to Me and to My service.
“This is no time for excuses, no time for procrastination, no time for caring for the things of this world. There is no time for careless reluctance, for lazy idleness. It is now time for repentance as never before. Repent now. Repent fully.
“Ask Me. Ask Me to reveal all that is in your heart that separates you from Me. Ask Me to reveal all that is in your life, all that you have picked up and brought into your life and into your home that is not of Me. Ask Me and I will show you. I will tell you so that you can repent quickly and walk in obedience to Me and to My word.
“I am coming back for a pure people, a holy people, an obedient people. Repent now and be cleansed, make yourself pure and holy through your obedience in repentance and turning away from all that is worldly, all that is fleshly. Repent now. Come back into holiness. Lay aside every thing that holds you back from following Me with your whole heart. Cast off every thing – every thought, every word, every act that opposes My Word, all that opposes My character, all that works against your wholehearted obedience to Me. Cast it off. Repent, turn away from your sin and run after Me as hard as you can. Pursue Me. Pursue My Holiness. Pursue My wisdom. Pursue righteous. Run to Me, My children – now. Then you will be able to call the nations to repentance. You repent now and walk in holiness.
“There is trouble ahead and you will need to be close to Me – closer than ever. Be cleansed and made whole. Be purified and walk in holiness so that you are prepared for what is ahead. Those who follow Me closely – who dwell in My presence will find safety and protection from all danger. Those who are prepared with the oil of My Spirit will not walk in darkness or fear. Those who abide in the Almighty are safe.
“Repent and draw closer to Me.”
Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest, and repent. Rev. 3:19

Stop Long Enough To Hear
My Child,
I've been waiting for you to stop long enough to hear what I have to say. I long to communicate with you at a deeper level than ever before. But you need to come to Me and sit in My presence to hear My voice. I speak softly. I will not shout for your attention. I will not compete with all the other noises. I am speaking to you.
First, My love for you is far greater than you realize. The enemy has tried to keep you blinded to the depth and breadth and height of My great love for you. Believe My love for you. Believe that My Word is true. Come and sit in My presence and allow Me to lovingly talk to you. I want a Father-child chat with you. There are things I want to guide you into. There are things I want to correct. Listen closely to My voice and Mine alone.
Allow Me to guide in all things. Do not try to make things happen, no matter how frustrated you feel over the seeming lack of any activity. I am working behind the scenes accomplishing what you could never accomplish. Trust Me as never before. Become flexible. Let Me guide you, be prepared, be ready to move quickly without lengthy explanations.
A new wave is coming and you need to be in position to catch it and ride the crest of the wave and go where it takes you. Be prepared. Don't be left on the shore wondering what happened and longing for what you missed. Take your place. Take your position. You will hear My voice directing you as you maneuver into the place I have called you to take.
Listen for My voice as you sit in My presence. And know that as you come into and wait in My glorious presence that you will be changed. My presence is light. And My light exposes everything. Just as standing before a mirror when you undress for your bath you see yourself as you are, standing in the Light of My presence you will see yourself as you really are. You stand before Me naked. Nothing is hidden. You will see whatever is not of Me. You will see the smallest thing that needs to be laid down or cast aside. Come into My presence and be cleansed, be changed, be prepared for the next wave. Listen, and look closely at what I am showing you.
