Absolute Truth - Cal Pierce

Wed, 5/29/2019

This year is a pivotal year for the Body of Christ. It is a time where we must begin to move into “truth absolute” where the Word of God that we read becomes the word that we live. The condition of the world will not determine the position of the believer. The word absolute in Webster’s Dictionary means “free from restrictions, limitations, or exception: absolute power, absolute freedom”. It also means “unrestrained in the exercise of governmental power”.

This year begins the releasing of the dread champions.

Jeremiah 20:11

“The Lord is with me like a dread champion; therefore, my persecutors will stumble and not prevail. They will be utterly ashamed, because they have failed, with an everlasting disgrace that will not be forgotten.”

These dread champions will walk in “truth absolute”. They will purge themselves of the influence from the enemy’s camp. They will have nothing of the enemy because they will be full of God. They will not be restrained because they will walk in God’s absolute power, freedom and truth. They will live what they read. They will know they have all power over the enemy and nothing shall injure them, according to Luke 10:19. They will achieve this because Jesus is in them as a dread champion. The Holy Spirit in them will no longer be suppressed by doubt.

It is clear that we are in the midst of the fulfillment of Isaiah’s prophecy in chapter 60 where darkness begins to cover the whole earth. It says that deep darkness will be on the people. Immorality established by the flesh of man has no limits. We have seen this played out right before our eyes. What was immoral in the past is embraced today. What is immoral today will be embraced tomorrow. As this darkness increases, the glory of the Lord will arise upon God’s dread champions. They will arise as the light comes upon them. They will wear the armor of light as written in Romans 13:12. No weapon of darkness will be able to penetrate their armor. It will be the opposite. Their light will expose the darkness and because they walk in “truth absolute”, nations will come to the brightness of their rising. This light brigade will have the only answer a desperate world is seeking. That will be Jesus!

A Spoken Word Brings Healing -

I came in last month (to the Healing Rooms) and they took me to the “big room” (for prayer). The team had a word for me. They said, “Ray of sunshine”.  At first, I just did not understand. Later, I looked up the Lithuanian meaning and it said: “Yes, in the Kingdom of light, Yes!” Then I remembered that at my wedding the videographer told me to say that I was a ray of sunshine. I could not say it at the time.

Later, after prayer, I finally got the courage to say it and when I spoke it out loud, I was set free! I am walking in freedom and enjoying life. Please thank the people who prayed for me.

Healings in Hayward –

God is moving in California! We had the opportunity to spend a few days at the Santa Maria Healing Rooms (Rick and Lori Taylor) which got us stirred up to expect more for our Healing Rooms.

The Lord had put on my heart to do a Healing Service on 4/18 – before Easter. Later we realized that it was in alignment with Luke 4:18 – the Lord was going to set the captives free and release healing in a powerful way. We spent the weeks leading up to the service fasting and praying for God’s presence to be there and for mighty miracles to happen. One hour before the service, the team met and prayed – we received a word that there would be an OPEN PORTAL and we would experience the Kingdom of heaven on earth during the service. The Associate Director received Words of knowledge of the healings to happen, which included anxiety, addiction, COPD, skin disorders, eye degeneration, diabetes, heart condition, arthritis, breast cancer and others – plus there would be someone hurting from the loss of a loved one. During the service, one of our ministers who was praying over the service received a visitation, not a vision, she says, but a visitation from Jesus where He was standing right in front of her, holding a rainbow that extended from one hand to the other. He passed the rainbow to her hands and the rainbow went through her hands to form a complete circle. Where the rainbow hit her hands, there was a bright light. This was only part of what happened – the rest tied in with direction for the destiny God has for her in ministry. It has totally changed her perspective and direction for her life.

We had live worship and then had three individuals share testimonies of healing. The Lord started healing during worship (back pain gone). Another person was healed during the testimony (pain in her hand just left). We had people come to the altar for prayer – total transformation was happening, strongholds breaking off of people, pain leaving their bodies. There were just so many testimonies. One that stirred my heart was a woman who was weeping as she was receiving prayer. The tears rolled down her cheeks, and as they hit the palm of her hand, she said that it felt like hot oil. She has experienced major transformation and healing and is excited to step back into ministry for the Lord again. There was the person who came forward for prayer who had lost a loved one and said he had a “broken heart” and was having a very difficult time since her death. With prayer, he started weeping and said he felt a release and was so thankful that we had this Healing Service.

This is just a taste of some of the testimonies! The place was filled with the love of God and everyone there felt it. It has stirred up our ministry team and we are in a state of expectancy of what the Lord has next!

TESTIMONY TIME -

This last week was exceptional as we had a fresh outpouring in our Healing Rooms.
A man came in with severe stomach issues and his stomach was so bloated. His shirt buttons were pulling apart. The ministers started praying for him and his stomach started to shrink. Within moments, it was shrunk back to normal size with no pain. The Lord gave them a word of knowledge that his neck on the C2 and C4 were misaligned. He was amazed they knew that. He left totally healed and loved on by the Father.

The following night a woman came in with a neck injury to her bones and nerves that was causing severe pain in both her neck and arm. After praying, they all could hear the bones crack as they went back in place. When the bones went back into place, the nerves released. Both the arm and neck pain were gone. She called the next morning to say it was the first time in months she hadn’t been in pain. In fact, she said she felt like doing the happy dance!

The presence of the Lord has been so thick, on client said it felt electric with God’ Presence when they walked in. One of the ministers actually lost five pounds in the Glory during worship. She weighs daily and there was a 5 pound loss when she weighed the next morning.
During worship, His Presence was so strong that the walls began to vibrate. We all felt it. I actually thought maybe Arizona was having an earthquake. I repented for not believing, after the Lord told me it was Him.

Prophetic Revelation - Cathy Hopkins

Wed, 5/29/2019

 

Recently I had quite an experience of many pieces of 'things' coming together. I believe that it is important to share some of this with you.  I hope it will speak to you regarding Healing Rooms, what God is doing in this Time and how much we must pay attention when He is speaking.  He has made it clear to me that hearing, knowing and responding quickly to His voice is imperative to walk the path He has for us.  God is so good! ~Be Blessed

February 22, 2019 I was sitting at a traffic light and noticed the license plate on the car in front of me. 10-9222 – I immediately ‘saw’ the date in the numbers. And then, I heard the question, ‘What does 10-9 mean in police radio code?’ Ok, that was different. I managed a quick pic of the plate before the light changed. Upon an online search, I discovered that 10-9 generally means ‘Repeat-Say Again’. Repeat 222? I pondered and asked Holy Spirit to help me understand if indeed there was something I needed to see and understand.

On March 3rd I received a Facebook message from Julie Calvert, IAHR National Director for New Zealand. It was a forward FB post of someone I did not know. In the post 2/22 was front and center. (Please know I had not reached out to Julie with the numbers.) In this person’s post, she spoke of Paul Cain’s recent passing along with the dates of Bob Jones and John Paul Jackson’s passing and the dates of all their burials. Per this person’s FB post, all three of these great men of God were ‘put in the ground as seeds’ on 2/22 in their respective years. Yes, this felt like the Lord letting me know He indeed was highlighting 222. More pondering.

On March 29th, co-worker and friend, Carol Krum, sent me a text to urge me to read the Elijah List article released that morning titled, ‘An Appointed Time and Season of Awakening’. While reading it, II could feel the presence of Holy Spirit and knew I needed to pay attention. A word I had received months ago came flooding back. (There are angels around you, whispering new things to you. Don’t just see what you see….see things IN what you see. They are there to reveal mysteries to you.) I asked Holy Spirit to show me. I read and reread, prayed and prayed some more. I did some research online and sought the Lord regarding everything I was ‘seeing’ in this article. I wanted to hear Him, see what He had for me. I want to share some of the things I believe Holy Spirit showed me.

In the midst of this time I suddenly ‘knew’ the ‘222’ is Acts 2:22, ‘Peter continued, “People of Israel, listen to the facts. Jesus, the Victorious, was a Man on a divine mission whose authority was clearly proven. For you know how God performed many powerful miracles, signs, and wonders through him.’ (TPT italics mine) There are many things in this article that caught my attention. As I have been with the ministry only 5 years of its 20 year history, not to mention the years leading up to its inception with all the prophetic words and prophetic acts, I have often said to the Lord that I needed Him to show me what I need to know, answer questions I don’t even know to ask. I discovered that the author of this article was the same person whose FB post Julie Calvert had forwarded to me, Kari Browning. In this article, Kari speaks of many divine happenings and the dates on which they occurred. The portion regarding May 2005 was powerful to me for several reasons.

It’s Time - On June 21, 2018, I clearly heard Holy Spirit say “It’s Time”. The words were pregnant. I knew I didn’t have a full understanding; however, I did know two things. He was speaking of our impending move the next week. (We were moving the Spokane Healing Rooms and the Healing Rooms Ministries’ administrative offices into the newly remodeled 2nd floor of the training center.) And He was telling me it was time to gather the team to pray – to ask that the Glory that had been resident in our midst would move with us, the angelic hosts and His Presence, which we did the following Tuesday evening. We began in the ‘old’ location and as we walked from one building to the next, we gathered at the door to go in to the ‘new’ as one, then someone began to sing ‘We are One in the Spirit’. On Monday, June 25, 2018, three ‘words’ came forth to confirm the move and it’s timing. The first part of our physical move began with the phone system. One of our receptionists was at the offices (we are closed on Mondays) and texted me stating ‘It’s time for the new to replace the old’. Two prophetic words from other ministries were forwarded to me by team members. The second ‘word’ began with ‘It’s moving time…..’ the third started with the words, ‘The Father says today, the move is on….’ Through this article and more research, Holy Spirit highlighted the date to me. I discovered that the prophetic word through Shawn Bolz about the earthquake that caused the Healing Rooms to move out of the Rookery Building occurred in June 2001. Shawn had an Open Vision on June 14th and the earthquake occurred June 25th. Yes, 17 years to the day of the official start of our move to the training center building, the earthquake happened, which was the official start of the previous move out of the Rookery Building.

The words ‘It’s Time’, as I stated, were pregnant when I heard them. I knew I was given a small piece of it - what I needed for the moment. In reading Kari’s article regarding May 2005, and how she and her daughter-in-law heard ‘It’s Time’, and saw watches, pocket watches to be exact, connected with me for June 2018 but also to November 2018 when a picture was sent to me by a couple in California, they are Healing Rooms directors. They had been gifted a painting by a friend who had painted it sometime before, I believe during a worship service. The artist heard Holy Spirit tell her to give this particular painting to these directors. This couple was (and are) in a serious time of transition waiting for the timing of the Lord to make a physical move He had instructed them to prepare for. When I received the picture and seeing the hands in the midst of the pocket watch reflecting the time of 2:20, I believe Holy Spirit spoke to me that it was regarding a date. Separately, they received the same message. Upon reading this part of Kari’s article ‘It's Time’ and the pocket watches jumped out at me. Then there was Todd Bentley’s part in hearing Acts 5:12 during a visitation on Mother’s Day 2005.

In mid-October 2018, Lori, part of the leadership of the Spokane Healing Rooms team, kept hearing the numbers 512. The numbers kept coming but she did not know what they meant. One night during prayer with other team members, a ‘wrong’ notebook, that the prayer requests were written in, was ‘accidentally’ brought in and as this person knew of Lori’s numbers, showed her the scripture written on the open page of the ‘wrong’ notebook, Acts 5:12. Lori’s heart was quickened and she knew that was the correct understanding to the numbers she kept hearing. It was a powerful night as they all prayed into Acts 5:12, ‘The apostles performed many signs, wonders, and miracles among the people.’ (italics mine) Acts 2:22 and Acts 5:12 – the same message…. Many signs, wonders, and miracles performed at Jesus’ hands and then the apostles and NOW … you and me, the Body of Christ. 10-9222- Repeat Acts 2:22 - Todd Bentley’s experience happened on Mother’s Day 2005 and he heard ‘Acts 5:12 begins today’. This year, 14 years later (14 - fullness of time- fulfillment - completion) Mother’s Day is on May 12th (5/12).

Pentecost - Over 30 years ago, through a book published by Kenneth Copeland Ministries, ‘John G. Lake’, I came to know who John G. Lake was. This book is a collection of many of John G. Lake’s sermons and his biography. In March/April 2018, the Lord told me to pick this book up again. I sat in the first chapter for weeks ‘Triune Salvation’. However, on May 4th, 2018, I perused the table of contents and discovered the chapter titled ‘Portland Vision’. John G. Lake had an encounter in 1920 right after he left Spokane and moved to Portland - an angelic visitation. At the end of this encounter, John G. Lake cried out for understanding regarding Pentecost. The angel took the Bible from JGL’s hands and opened it to the book of Acts. The angel strongly stated, “This is Pentecost as God gave it through the heart of Jesus. Strive for this. Contend for this. Teach the people to pray for this. For this, and this alone, will meet the necessity of the human heart, and this alone will have the power to overcome the forces of darkness.” As I have pondered the two scriptures about the performing of signs, wonders and miracles, my thoughts were drawn to what had occurred just before these verses in their respective places in the book of Acts - Unity, One Accord, One heart, mind and spirit of all those gathered to seek Him. Kari recently wrote about JGL’s Portland vision and other things regarding the Power of Pentecost on her website. She shared that in 2006, Bob Jones, at a conference in the Pacific Northwest, watched a Native American man dance in full regalia to Jason Upton’s song, ‘We are One in the Spirit’, and prophesied that during this performance, the heavens opened. He also stated that there would be a sign in the heavens to confirm it. On Pentecost weekend, a Fire Rainbow appeared that was so rare it made international news. Psalm 133 has been in the forefront of my heart since, soon after coming to Spokane. When we are in unity, the Lord says from that place He commands the blessing. My belief is that His commanded blessing looks like ‘signs, wonders, and miracles of healing’ being performed at the hands of His people.

In my research I discovered a newsletter on White Dove Ministries website from 2003. In it I found what I consider to be powerful information speaking of God’s foundational work as He prepared for the birthing of this ministry and others. In January 1999, a meeting of American prophets occurred where they heard from the Lord that an ‘unholy alliance between the spirit of religion and the spirit of politics was unleashing terrorism and the ultimate purpose of the unholy alliance was to “frustrate the birthing of God’s purposes in our nation”’. However, the Lord said there would be ‘a company of believers who will “crossover” as spies to taste the good word of God and the Power of the age to come and share it with the Body at large and introduce a new day in the Spirit.’ The year 1999 saw many strong ministries birthed - Healing Rooms, International House of Prayer, and The Call, to name only a few. Bethel was already experiencing much in their midst, as we know that is where Cal and Michelle were when they were sent to Spokane to ‘re-dig the wells of healing’. I am humbled to be a part. January 2018, at the Elijah List Conference in Oregon, the Lord gave me a word through Steve Shultz. The last part was – “You are contending for something….Wait for it, it will surely come.” I now realize this is tied to Habakkuk 2:3. Verse 2: “Write the vision; make it plain on tablets, so he may run who reads it. Verse 3 For still the vision awaits its appointed time; it hastens to the end—it will not lie. If it seems slow, wait for it; it will surely come; it will not delay." The word translated as “vision” in this verse can also be translated revelation. Isn’t that what prophets and all who receive a prophetic word do? They receive revelation and they write it out, with the intent and hope that others will also see and run with it as the Spirit of God leads. The end of this verse states, ‘it will not delay’. I have seen many prophetic words in recent months declaring NO MORE DELAY.

10-9 222 = Repeat Pentecost - Signs, Wonders, Miracles at the Hands of the Body of Christ

This believer BELIEVES we have stepped into a ‘fullness of time’. A suddenly, like we have never seen, is exploding in our midst in upcoming weeks. Let’s stand together in full agreement – obedient to the Lord’s command to contend in prayer, persistent prayer, to enter into ALL He has for us so we can bring in the harvest through our unity in His Spirit – where He commands the Blessing. The end of the biography of John G. Lake, in the book I have, quotes him stating, “I can see…that there is coming from heaven a new manifestation of the Holy Spirit in power, and that new manifestations will be in sweetness, in love, in tenderness…beyond anything your heart or mine ever saw. The very lightning of God will flash through men’s souls.”

The best is yet to come!

The Word says in 1 Cor. 2:9 “No eye has seen nor ear heard the things I have prepared for you”.
Not in the sweet by in by, but in the land of the living.

O taste and see that I AM good. You will eat of the labor of your hands.

It is harvest time! Not only is it the time for the earths harvest of souls, but it is also the harvest time of your fruits and your labors. It’s time to reap your reward.

O taste and see how pleasant it is to dwell in the house of the Lord. In Me is the fullness of joy, joy unspeakable and full of glory.

O taste and see! Rejoice in Me, Rejoice ahead of time! For great is your God and greatly to be praised. He is ready to open up the Heavens and pour out such a blessing that you will not be able to contain it.

Every need will be met according to His riches in Glory in Christ Jesus.                               Poured out ~ Poured out ~ Poured out

Nothing is impossible for Me! I AM your all in all, I AM the I AM, the One who was, and is, and is to come. Many are called but few are chosen. But I have chosen you to touch people, regions and nations in My Name. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers and declare to them that “The Kingdom of God has come near them”.

Rejoice, and again I say Rejoice!

Healing in the Kingdom
by Cal Pierce
B--245-769
$11.00

Healing in the Kingdom lays a foundation from God's Word that shows you how to receive healing by faith, how to address the roadblocks to healing and how to move in authority through the Holy Spirit to see healing and divine health manifested in this present age. In order to move in God's power to see the sick healed, we must first know that we have the power to heal the sick--and that certainly can only be found in the Word of God.

Kingdom Success - Cal Pierce

Wed, 4/24/2019

Sometimes we Christians have a distorted view of success.  We relate success to acquiring money.  We think the Bible tells us to have financial success is not God’s will for us. We think money is evil.   1 Timothy 6:10 says, “For the love of money is the root of all evil…”  Money isn’t the problem, it’s when we love it more than we love God, family or friends.  Money is important as it finances the kingdom work.

Success isn’t determined by how much money we have.  It is determined by how we prosper in what God calls us to do.  Webster’s dictionary tells us that success is the favorable or prosperous termination of attempts or endeavors.  If we are the body of Christ and have the kingdom of God in us, we should live as successful people.  God clearly tells us how to have success in Joshua 1:8,

Notice that this scripture says we have to speak the Word and also do the Word, then we make our way prosperous.  We are successful when we prosper in what God calls us to do.  This applies to all aspects of our lives.

We must meditate on the Word to know if what we are doing is God’s will for us.  If it is His will for us, we must be careful to do it.  Success is achieved when we incorporate God’s will into our plan.  This is important because God’s Word cannot fail.  I tell my staff that every problem we encounter is just a target for God’s answer.  As overcomers, we overcome problems by the Word of God.  Successful people always succeed.  Successful believers always say, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”  All success requires plans and actions, for without plans and actions, we get poverty.  Time alone will bring poverty because poverty requires nothing of us.  When we put God’s Word in our plan and act upon it, we will prosper in all we do.

HEALED of MIGRAINE HEADACHES -

Twelve-year old Emma came to the Healing Rooms of Green Bay for prayer for healing of migraine headaches. Here is what she experienced. "I would get headaches since like 2nd grade. I had them at school, on the bus and at home. Anywhere I went it was like they were following me. I was just used to having them. Then one day I went with my dad to the Healing Rooms, and I haven't had them since."

"I have been coming for three weeks. On March 27, 2019 I was delivered to Jesus. They have shown me the path to God and healing. If you are in pain or are suffering, I would strongly recommend you to come for prayer. They will help you in ways you can only imagine. I also obtained a miracle of healing while being prayed for, which involved my left leg growing out even with my right leg - an affliction I've suffered from since 1998."

REPENTANCE, HEALING, RESTORATION -

I have been struggling with feelings of being a failure professionally, having recently lost a job that I thought I wanted to do for the rest of my career. That has come alongside a 2.5 year medical condition that has caused me severe pain and suffering and no doctor has been able to diagnose. I have received prayer from many different sources during this period of time and have stood in faith believing that I would be healed, either by doctors or through the power of God’s touch. After receiving the news that even surgery was not going to be an option for me, my spiritual life was deeply affected. I have felt powerless and hopeless as the pain continued. This led to situational depression that was affecting every part of my life.

Then one Friday evening, while my wife and I were praying together, I began to repent for being hopeless and not putting my trust in God. We made declarations that these feelings were no longer permitted and that in the morning, a new sense of hope and expectation about my new job would replace the feelings of failure about the old one. When we woke up on Saturday morning, there was a tangible shift in the atmosphere of our home.

That evening I received a call from a surgeon I had seen in Seattle. He said that he had finally been able to review a test that I had had done in January and was able to compare it to the same test that I had done 2 years before. He was able to see that there were definite changes that now warranted a diagnosis that supported moving forward with surgery. My healing is coming!

Resurrection Sunday - Jesse Utz

Wed, 4/24/2019

Jesse Utz

When I was growing up, I called it Easter, but as time has gone by and I have matured and educated myself, I have come to realize that it is Resurrection Sunday. We celebrate the day that Christ left the tomb and claimed his seat next to his Father three days after being crucified. This week is the pivotal week in the earliest beginnings of the church, and I would like to walk you through that week briefly.

The triumphant entry. Palm Sunday, Jesus rode a donkey into Jerusalem, fulfilling the prophecy from the Old Testament. The people celebrated by laying down palm branches for the presumed king’s return to the city. They also were clinging to a prophecy of old of a king returning to conquer and restore. Jesus then cleaned out the temple of the money exchangers and businessmen, and restored his Father’s house. The Pharisees cringed.

Over a week’s time, the cheers of victory and joy turned to shouts of hate and murder. Crucify him, they yelled. I have to ask myself how it got so bad so fast. There are too many lessons in that week for me to log them all here, but this is what is on my heart: Jesus knew. He knew the plan. He even asked his Father in intense prayer if there was any other way. There was not.

He knew the outcome and still pressed on. He preached, healed, dined and prayed. He continued loving a people that would eventually nail him to a cross, stand him up between thieves, strip him naked, flog him, spit on him, choose a serial killer over him, mock him and kill him. Yet, he loved them. He still died for the very things they were doing to him.

The earth cried out upon his death. The skies turned black, stones split, thunder roared, and the earth shook. The earth mourned the Creator’s death. The earth joined the few followers that still loved Jesus and had not run away. He was placed in a guarded tomb. The mourning was real.

Three days later, everything changed. The tomb was empty; Jesus had indeed risen. Again, fulfilling Old Testament prophecy and sparking the start of his church.

I ask myself a question every year at this time: Who would I have been if I had lived during this? Would I be the Pharisees, denying the miracles and clinging to old-school religion? Would I be a Roman soldier, just doing my job and killing a Savior? Would I be one of those who cheered his entry into the city, only to chant for his crucifixion? Would I be one of the followers who scattered? Would I be Judas? Would I mourn? Would I keep checking the tomb?

I would like to think I would have believed, that I would have entered the upper room and waited for the gift from Jesus, to see him alive and well, going to sit with his Father and receiving the Holy Spirit fire to live inside of me, to commune with the triune God ’til my last breath.

In reality, we are still asking that question. Who are we? But many of us do believe now. We do remember the sacrifice of love that Jesus performed so long ago that is still just as relevant today — if we make it personal and realize that Jesus saw all sins as he hung to the cross. He saw mine and yours, meaning he died and was resurrected for you and me. Now that is something to celebrate. He is still our risen King.

May you reflect on this Resurrection Sunday and examine your own life. I know my family and I will, and we will give thanks for a risen Savior who died for us personally and is still reigning with love, mercy and grace.

Spring Cleaning - Carol Krum

Wed, 4/24/2019

Carol Krum

This morning on the way to work, I glanced in my side mirror and saw a semi coming with the letters CRY as its logo. It struck me as such an odd name for a company to promote its business. However, when it came up beside me, I realized I had been reading it backwards in my mirror, because it was actually YRC! An early morning chuckle ensued, as once again, I was my own best entertainer!

Then the Holy Spirit quickened to me His message for YRC! Your Redeeming Cross! In an instant, I saw all that was accomplished on the cross at Calvary through the blood poured out for mankind. But then, oddly enough, I was reminded of all the sins I had committed before I was healed of my past brokenness. Jesus had shed His precious blood and paid my debt for ALL of it and for every sin I would commit for the rest of my life!

One might ask why this was brought to my remembrance at such a time as this. After all, we are told we need not recall those sins that have been forgiven. Psalm 103:12 tells us, “As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us.” When the Father looks at us, He can only see the blood of His Son that has washed us clean. He sees only His Son’s righteousness as we stand before Him spotless, righteous and holy.

Thank God for the redeeming blood of Jesus!

As much as I would love to say I didn’t need this reminder today, I cannot! Do I know it to be true? Of course, I do! Do I believe it in every cell and fiber of my being? Absolutely! The Word is true, it is Yes and Amen, always and forever!

Please allow me to be real in this present moment! I am in a serious battle for my soul. Something has happened in my life that the enemy is using to unleash every weapon he has to knock my feet out from under me. Without giving details, suffice it to say that anger, resentment, bitterness, unforgiveness and offense are pounding at the door of my soul with an unrelenting force, causing me great pain and anguish. Most Christians choose not to be this transparent while in the midst of their battle, waiting, instead, until they have their testimony of overcoming victory. However, because of my experience this morning, I am convinced that someone reading this needs to be encouraged in their own present battle!

Today my weapon of choice is to take the Light of the Spirit of Truth and cast it right into the heart of my very own soul where these hidden pockets of residual sin will be exposed. These nasty critters are knocking at the door of my soul, alright, but they are knocking from the inside! They have been tucked away in places I didn’t even know existed, but sure enough, given the right circumstances, to my horror they have risen up within me! David said to the Lord in Psalm 139:24, “And see if there is any wicked way in me ...” How easy it is to quote that scripture and truly mean it; that is, until something wicked shows up! Then we are shocked beyond words at the ugliness that is revealed.

I am so thankful for the words of Paul in Romans 7:15-20 where he speaks of doing the things he doesn’t want to do and not doing the things he wants to do. Well, if Paul can say this, so can we! It is sin, pure and simple. And it’s time to deal with it!

We are told that God is going to be doing a deep cleansing within the Bride of Christ before He will bring in the awakening harvest that He has promised. With our sincere “Yes” to Him, we have given Him permission to bring to light anything that needs to be removed in order that we may have a clean heart and a steadfast spirit within us. Keep in mind that God loves us just the way we are, but too much to let us stay that way! As painful as it is to see, if He reveals it, He will also give us the grace to take care of business so that we can truly be made the vessels He is looking for to carry the new wine that is coming. I do believe He is very serious about cleansing the Body of Christ first. I’m just shocked at how quickly He went after me!! Oops, now I see pride raising its ugly head and I must add that to my list! Seriously? Did I actually believe none of this could possibly be hiding somewhere in my soul? Apparently so, because of how shocked and disappointed I have been to see it! Glory be to God that Romans 8:1 says, “There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”

This is absolutely not about condemnation, because condemnation will never come from God. Otherwise, why would He have allowed His only Son to come to this earth, take on humanity, live a righteous and holy life bringing healing, deliverance and restoration to God's chosen, only to end up beaten, scourged and hung on a cross to die? The answer can only lie in the infinite love, compassion and mercy He has for all mankind. It is His desire to welcome us all back into His loving presence through reconciliation, but that could not happen without the atoning price that Jesus paid for all of us, and that includes you and me. It is difficult to comprehend the magnitude of such love and we are left so gracefully broken before Him as we face those “wicked ways” within our own soul.

Yet how beautiful it is to know that God sees this as so necessary, and may I say even urgent, in this moment in history. We must have the faith to believe that God will do what only He can do to bring us deeper and deeper into our relationship with Him. I believe that the Lord wants us to be more in love with Him in this season than we have ever been before. That means being honest enough with ourselves and with Him, being vulnerable enough to face the very things He will reveal in order to be deeply cleansed of any impurities we carry so that our love relationship with Him will flourish beyond anything we could ever hope for or imagine! That’s why there is such a heavenly urgency to get the Bride of Christ cleansed, purified and made ready for the new wine that is being poured out right now..

As one voice in the Body and Bride of Christ, I share this message with you in all faith, believing that it will be a sweet reminder to anyone else who may find themselves faced with their own “hidden pockets of sin” in the near future. May we all be encouraged to continue in our “Yes” to the Lover of our soul, the One who is the author and finisher of our faith, the Lord Jesus Christ, so that we may say, along with Paul in 1 Cor. 15:10, “By grace and only by grace I am what I am, and it was not without having its effect.”

Prophecy - Ron and Kori Moreland - From the Bedroom to the Ballroom

Wed, 4/24/2019

Ron and Kori Moreland

On Thursday, April 11, 2019, Carol Krum came into the office of the Eagle River Bible College and mentioned to the staff how the ground and the souls cry out here in Spokane for more of God's presence. Ron and I looked at each other, because that is one of the reasons we moved here from Arizona last December. We were hearing the cries of the people and we knew there was a hunger for the Spirit of God in this region

Overcome by the Spirit of God, Ron immediately hit the floor travailing with tears of deep intercession. He was crying out to God and repenting on behalf of the body of Christ. Tears were flowing in the room from those present, witnessing and entering into this holy moment. Finally, Ron said, “we are nothing without Your presence.”

God wants the hearts of the Bride, not pride. He wants a broken and contrite heart that hears the cries of the Land. This is the sound He is looking for, weeping for the body of Christ; crying out for the people who are hungry and hurting. As Ron was repenting and crying out to God, he was hearing the cries of the land and he told God he wanted to assist the Bride to awaken and come to the Father.

Then God the Father spoke, saying, “It is not time yet.” Ron stated, “But God, I want to help them. I hear the cries of the land crying out to You. I hear the cries of Your people.” He continued to weep sand  to repent, pouring out his broken heart before the Lord. After a while, he simply said, “Oh God, I will go where You go; I will go where Your presence goes.”

Later, Ron explained the vision He was seeing during this time of intercession:
He saw the Bride, the whole church represented in millions of little bodies, in the shape of one huge body, lying on a beautiful bed. The body had been there a long time and it was asleep. Jesus came into the room; He gently walked to the side of the bed where the Bride was sleeping and said, “It is time to wake up.” He continued to quietly speak to His Bride to awaken her. In the vision, Ron was not able to see if the Bride actually woke up.

Then he saw Jesus standing at the door of the chamber. He was actually standing in the most beautiful ballroom he had ever seen. Ron struggled to find the words to describe the beauty. It was huge and it was filled with colors he could not define. But what he did see was Jesus provoking His Bride to come away with Him to the ballroom and dance. He kept looking in the bedroom and waiting for her to come to Him on the ballroom floor. There was such pain in Jesus because the Bride was not coming or waking up. Ron could see how He longingly desires to dance with His Bride. Jesus stood in the ballroom looking into the bedroom. He stood looking with longing into the bedroom waiting for the Bride to come. Again, Jesus stood in the ballroom waiting for the bride to come and dance with Him. (This was repeated three times).

Prophetic -
We have had times of intimacy in the secret place (the bedroom). Jesus loves those times of intimacy. But He wants to teach us to dance, to be drawn out of the bedroom into the ballroom. Jesus keeps looking from the ballroom to the bedroom, waiting for the Bride to awaken.

The cry of the people will be “Not my will but Your will be done, Lord. Your Kingdom come, not my kingdom come. We must have Your presence. Where Your presence is, I will go.” Some of the Bride will wake up and some will not.

The question was asked why we do not live in His presence. The Church goes through the motions and emotions of church protocol. Stand up, sit down, hear the sermon and leave. Stop talking about coming into His presence and just do it; get into His presence! Winds of change are blowing over the body. The Breath of God is blowing over the body. This is not about man. Ron spoke out 2 Chronicles 5:11-14 -no man could preach because of the Glory of God in the room.

For the remainder of the experience, Ron could only speak in tongues, because it was not yet time to speak it out. Stillness and peace filled the office. No one was able to speak, for the Glory of the Lord filled the atmosphere, not only in that office, but throughout the entire building!

2 Chronicles 5:11- 14
11 And it came to pass when the priests came out of the Most Holy Place (for all the priests who were present had sanctified themselves, without keeping to their divisions), the Levites who were the singers, all those of Asaph and Heman and Jeduthun, with their sons and their brethren, stood at the east end of the altar, clothed in white linen, having cymbals, stringed instruments and harps, and with them one hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets indeed it came to pass, when the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the Lord, and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised the Lord, saying:
“For He is good, For His mercy endures forever,"
that the house, the house of the Lord, was filled with a cloud, so that the priests could not continue ministering because of the cloud; for the glory of the Lord filled the house of God.

Ron and Kori Moreland are the Founders of Eagle River Bible College in Spokane, Washington, having been called to equip the body of Christ on the mountain of Education through teaching and training to advance the Kingdom of Heaven on earth.
