Joshua 1:9 "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.”

Keep pushing through the darkness and chaos; light and peace are well within reach. Refuse to allow the darkness to overwhelm you or swallow you up. Rise up on the wings of the power of My word and truth. Light always prevails over the darkness. Truth overcomes lies. Be strong in the power of My Spirit, says the Lord.



Confidence and boldness. I have chosen you because deep inside you are fearless. You are willing to face uncertainty with complete faith in Me that I will protect and guide you. Soon you will place your feet on a land and a place totally unfamiliar to you. You have an open door but know not what the house and land contain. The people are waiting for you. Their hearts will be turned to Jesus they see in you. Do not ponder long this mystery because I am revealing My hidden mysteries in this hour. It is My choice alone. You will decree a thing and it will happen just as you say. Therefore, be confident and bold according to the needs of those before you. Expect blind eyes to be opened, hearts to be healed, sickness to flee and hearts totally transformed as you speak My word. You have the heart of a roaring lion. Confidence and boldness.

Acts 4:29-31 "And now, Lord, take note of their threats, and grant that Thy bond-servants may speak Thy word with all confidence, while Thou dost extend Thy hand to heal, and signs and wonders take place through the name of Thy holy servant Jesus." And when they had prayed, the place where they had gathered together was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak the word of God with boldness."

Pray without Ceasing my children and let me walk alongside you and talk to you this day.

This is a day my children have to stay in communion with me because this is a day the enemy wants to steal,kill and destroy what I have given you to do,so pray my children and walk with me my children in this new level of anointing and love that I want to pour out on you and then I want you to pour them out on others.

It takes praying and worship and breaking the generational curses and the witchcraft spirits and it can come by nothing but praying and praying in the spirit saith the Lord.

Pray with the spirit and pray with the understanding and sing with the spirit and sing with the understanding,but let my love guide you and lead you saith the Lord as you remember to pray all the time.

4 PROPHECY: / Daily Prophecy Corner / THE ALARM IS BEING SOUNDED by Lanna Perry 1/18 on: Today at 06:03:19am
The Alarm Is Being Sounded
18th January, 2007
Lanna Perry

I found myself sitting before the Lord worshipping and seeking Him, when I found myself encapsulated in a vision like state, where I saw Moses sitting before me. Moses began to tell me a message from the Lord.

The Lord is sounding His alarm. He has given me this message to warn people of what is coming. T he church is very much like the church Paul dealt with, and the Israelites. The church now is still allowing gods of this age to take their eyes from the one who truly can set them free.

Many leaders who truly seek Jesus shall enter the Promised Land, a place where they can truly grab hold of the promises and blessings of Jehovah. The Promised Land - that being what Jesus has already purchased for them, dynamic relationship, pure relationship, and walking intimately with Him and taking to heart ALL His promises, walking by faith and not by sight. Walking in active, growing relationship with Jesus.

In coming months the church will begin to turn on each other in greater ways and the enemy seeks to divide the universal church like never before and in the coming months he is going to try to prevent the move of Jesus coming to the universal church.

Leaders must be aware now of the poisonous tongues.

From within the enemy is now planting seeds of poison on the tongues of those who are walking under the banner of Jesus but are seeking other gods.

The enemy has placed his spies within the walls of the universal church and the destruction he has planned is at hand.

The intercessors are to begin praying the Glory and love of Jesus into their congregations daily.

He said that the enemy will be disarmed through this proactive attack of worship, intercession and love.

If this bomb is released by the enemy it will cause those who are not truly following the Lord to fall away, it will bring about a separation, but also bring much damage to many flocks.


What the Lord is bringing to His Church is so great and full of His splendor that the enemy seeks to bring destruction before the deliverance arrives.

These spies will either be removed through the worship, love and Glory of God coming in greater ways or through the explosion.

Jesus does not want destruction so it's up to the Church to decide whether it will sit back and wait for the bomb or move forward in proactive worship and intercession. The alarm has been sounded.

Either way, these spies will be unveiled and through the resultant shaking, the Church made clean.


Jesus wants a holy shaking of prayer and worship, an increase of this within churches.

Jesus is indeed coming back for a pure and spotless bride.

5 PROPHECY: / Daily Prophecy Corner / DEGRADATION AND DEFILEMENT by Priscilla Van Sutphin 1/18 on: Today at 06:00:49am
Degradation and Defilement
Jan 18th, 2006
Scribe: Priscilla Van Sutphin
www.upstreamca.org


“ I speak to you of difficult things tonight beloved. Things that make my heart weep.
There is so much that I want to change in My church. There is so much that MUST change.
Those who think they are well, are sick, from the head to the feet, My body is sick and defiled. They degrade others, yet do not realize in doing so they are defiling themselves.
They measure men by the world’s standards instead of Mine. So many are preaching and teaching prosperity without self denial, and success without failure. There is no GRACE anymore for those who don’t march to their tune. Even if that one is marching to Mine.


The year of My vengeance is at hand, and they are not awakened. But they will awaken.
They will be startled out of their slumber by the events coming this year and the next.
There is no more moratorium on My judgments. I am coming NOW into My church because judgment begins with the house of the LORD. I have been rattling some cages so the MEN
will wake up from their complacency and lack of abandonment to ME. I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE. I AM the LIGHT OF THE WORLD. NOTHING is done but I have My hand on the situation. Men have been running with their own ideas for long enough, not considering the consequence to their fellow man.


I AM ROARING over the NATIONS ! I am going to roar, and ROAR, and ROOOAAARRR !
I will destroy the kingdoms of men, that they will bow to ME and advance MY KINGDOM.
The earth will be filled with the knowledge of the LORD, from sea to sea, there will be an outpouring of MY LOVE AND GRACE upon the sons of men. But it will not come without COST and COMMITMENT. You will not see prosperity that is just for man to lavish himself with any more in THIS nation. You will see the prosperity that I bring that you can feed others and advance MY KINGDOM. But MY KINGDOM never needed millions of dollars of support to establish it. It came in SIGNS AND WONDERS. AND it advanced by the very breath of the LORD, not by man’s efforts.

Note: We all agree with Senteami in praying I Corin. 13 for this forum....
In MY KINGDOM, men care for one another and help one another. Early believers SOLD all that they had and laid the money at the feet of the apostles. Those apostles were evident by their SIGNS and WONDERS, and by their concern for HOLINESS unto the LORD and doing only what I WANTED. PAUL paid to release Onesimus from his debt. ONESIMUS was a SLAVE. WHAT will you give to help the children caught up in pornography, and used as objects like slaves ? What will you give up to be able to help ADVANCE the KINGDOM ?
Will you live simply rather than luxuriously ? Will you use one car instead of two or three ?
Will you give up some luxury so that you can give to someone who has NOTHING TO EAT ?
Or will you STUFF yourselves while others cry out to ME for one morsel of food.
Will you live your life like the rich man in the story of LAZARUS ? Or will you CARE for your brother or sister ? Well now many will live like Lazarus, because they have not cared for anyone but themselves. Many will cry out to ME in their suffering so that they will learn what true humility is. How can you watch the pain and suffering around the world and laugh at the degradation of others, and defilement of little children and not do anything ?


EVERY day I HAVE TO WATCH IT ! I have to hear and see the hearts of little children abandoned, raped, beaten, killed, used in occult rituals and enslaved by Islam and other false religions and perversions. I have to hear their cries every day. I listen to the cries of the HOMELESS daily. WILL you now move to help those who can’t help themselves, either physically or emotionally ? Will you give up your time to spend time with ME and attain MY HEART ? Will you not FIGHT AGAINST THE EVILDOERS for My name’s sake ? Will YOU NOT RAISE UP A STANDARD OF RIGHTEOUSNESS AND PROCLAIM MY KINGDOM TILL THE END COMES ? FOR I TELL YOU IT IS CLOSER THAN YOU THINK. THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS AT HAND. I WILL HAVE A HARVEST OF SOULS LIKE NOTHING SEEN BEFORE, WITH OR WITHOUT YOUR ASSISTANCE ! BUT IT IS MY BRIDE, MY BELOVEDS THAT I LONG TO BLESS, SO CHOOSE THIS DAY WHOM YOU WILL SERVE, MAMMON & SELF, OR ME !”

Matt 6:19-21 NKJV Lay Up Treasures in Heaven (Luke 12:33,34)
"Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

Acts 4:31-35 AMP
31 And when they had prayed, the place in which they were assembled was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they continued to speak the Word of God with freedom and boldness and courage.
32 Now the company of believers was of one heart and soul, and not one of them claimed that anything which he possessed was [exclusively] his own, but everything they had was in common and for the use of all.
33 And with great strength and ability and power the apostles delivered their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace (loving-kindness and favor and goodwill) rested richly upon them all.
34 Nor was there a destitute or needy person among them, for as many as were owners of lands or houses proceeded to sell them, and one by one they brought (gave back) the amount received from the sales
35 And laid it at the feet of the apostles (special messengers). Then distribution was made according as anyone had need.

1 Corinthians 13
1Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

2And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

3And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

4Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

5Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

6Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

7Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

8Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

9For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

10But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

11When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

12For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

13And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

(WOW, this Paul could write!)

i am in agreement...
