I know you’ve already gotten more emails from this blog than normal, but I wanted to send this before I post the link I mention below to Facebook 🙂 Let me start by saying THANK YOU to those who have been working away on the big request with the spirit of jealousy – I SO appreciate you taking the time and am humbled and honored that you would do so.
DrMel arrives tomorrow (Yay!) so prayers over our time together appreciated! You all will be with us in spirit 🙂
Praise Reports
Software
Allen’s heart has totally shifted after the whole software situation. God has given him such a beautiful depth of understanding and Allen got a revelation about the Lord asking him to look foolish for the benefit of this man’s eternity because his actions have CERTAINLY caused a whole LOT of prayer on his behalf! I fully expect to meet him in heaven one day – God’s gonna get him 🙂
So we are both doing well and have total peace about the whole thing. I did contact Adobe (the makers of the software) who were basically like “too bad for you” – LOL, but I did find out that it’s not even a real Adobe serial number – so it was just a very convincing fake, which still amazes me because it was a dead ringer! But the whole thing has been put to rest aside from continuing prayers for the young man.
God-time
Also just wanted to say I’ve had some really rich moments with God this week and I know your prayers have been a huge part of that! I may have more prayer requests later based on some of it, but for now just chewing and appreciating the deeper connection.
I will share one thing He said to me. He’s wired me as both a leader and a teacher – and it’s all about me facilitating others getting deeper intimacy with Him. So He says to me the other night “you can only lead them as far as you’ve gone… so how deep do YOU want to go?” LOL – I loved that 🙂 It was a good reminder that I cannot get so busy doing work for Him that I neglect pressing deeper myself.
Marriage Prayer
I just posted a new blog post on D4Y and I will tell you I STRUGGLED with filling this order because God had me send her an Ascend scarf (which previously had only gone to prayer team members) and He instructed me to include a printcard of Frontline Warriors for her as well. Had I not had a previous connection with Reyna, I know I would have struggled even more.
I argued with God a bit wanting to keep the scarf and art “special” for the team, but at the end of the day He confirmed it to me enough it was sent – the story it birthed were encouragement that I shouldn’t have fought so hard in the first place. 😉
Anyhow, I felt led to ask for your prayers for breakthrough for not just Reyna’s marriage, but also as you are praying please pray for breakthroughs in the marriages of the prayer team members (including Amanda E as a D4Y Outpost) as well 🙂 I know many are contending for varying types of breakthroughs and I think if we all push together we can (and will) make more effective progress!
Reyna shared more details which she specifically asked I share with you all (she knew about the team because I did tell her about my struggles in sending her order and why they’re been set apart as special). If you feel led to read her specifics, feel free – if not you may skip this part and simply pray as the Lord leads.
Below are Reyna’s visions in the order she got them – feel free to let me know if you get something you want me to pass on to her. I figure if you get something for a team member it can either be included in a comment (unless it’s too personal, in which case use FB or email) and if you get anything for Amanda E use FB or email. Thank you and blessings to you all!!!
1. I was walking toward my home and I stopped b/c I could see a group of sinister black dogs in front of my house growling. I climbed onto the neighbors porch to avoid walking close to them and get into my house without allowing them in. I opened my front door slightly so I could slip in but not allow any of the dogs to charge forward before I could close the door. But, one slopped past me and ran up the stairs straight to my bedroom. I ran up after it b/c my husband was asleep and men I got up there I saw it had my husband’s neck in a tight grip with it’s jaws, but my husband was oblivious to any of it. I screamed and screamed but he didn’t wake up.
2. The vision has changed. The evil dogs are still in front of the house and the ugliness of their transformed faces are hideous. When I walk towards them the cower from the bright light that is shining and shrivel up like little weavel bugs (tight little balls). As i enter the house their are angels with flaming white hair and they are HUGE! They have swords with fire flowing from them. I enter with the kids. Then I see Rich(my husband) and the dogs unroll and stand tall and erect and they start throwing mud at him. I then see them throw mud at the kids but it only sticks to Isaiah. (my oldest son-he’s 12).It sticks to him in small amounts-much less then Rich. Rich then showers (he can’t see the mud but I do) and as he showers mud falls off, but the more he washes the dirtier he looks. He leaves the shower soiled yet he doesn’t see he is dirty. Fire falls from Heaven and settles like a fireball cloud over my house, but doesn’t move or engulf it. It just hovers over it.
3. As I enter the house I see the Angels again. I enter-bright light surrounds us. Isaiah enters still receiving “flecks” of mud. As he passes the threshold of our home he shines with glory, but when he leaves the house mud fleck are thrown and begin to stick to him again.
4. Â As Rich enters the house I see a dark object jump in his back pocket and jeer at me. He sits at the dinner table and the object slithers out of his pocket and turns into a snake. It slithers all the way and around his head and then back down to his pocket. He has NO CLUE this is happening. The cloud of fire wants to penetrate and refine but it only has permission to do so after power is released and is is called forth through fasting. There are more than 1 spirit says the Lord and hey are multiplying and growing in strength. Fast-crisis fast says the Lord. Pray without ceasing.
Quoting Meghan:
“I know many are contending for varying types of breakthroughs and I think if we all push together we can (and will) make more effective progress!”
I know this week I had a definite “call to arms” and to be on the alert and it seemed to apply to the various ministries I pray for as well as my family and friends.
I don’t specifically have anything to encourage or add for Reyna or Amanda E yet, but what I am compelled to add is about what some of my family members have seen lately. Earlier this week as I was starting to drift off to sleep, I had a picture of 4 really ugly, twisted, demonic looking animals in my bedroom. I remember praying against animalistic spirits because that’s the word that came with the picture–basically told them to leave in the name of Jesus Christ and prayed that the Lord would cover my home with the blood of Jesus as my Passover lamb. That same night a hour or so later, my husband went to sleep and dreamt of an ugly large black cat. Here’s the thing–1st I don’t often get pictures–I normally hear words. (he is bringing more of those to me recently but that’s a different story.) My husband on the other hand does NOT see things like that, and didn’t know what to do with it because of previously teachings against visions–another long story. 🙂 It just seems like an interesting coincidence…..
Months ago my 11 year old daughter had a dream that the devil was in our bedroom and she told him to leave in the name of Jesus Christ and he said she couldn’t make him leave…. Had a friend tell me this week for my daughter to ask God why she couldn’t tell the devil to leave AND that my husband and I need to ask the Lord and take action on anything that may be allowing access. My husband and I talked about it and it was the same night we had these pictures…..
My husband was laid off in February after only working at the job for 9 months and no one saw it coming and they didn’t know why he was let go. The company’s owner just called out of the blue while out of town and said let David go…. Yesterday’s weird incident was that he was driving his car and ended up behind another vehicle with a bumper sticker from the “Christian” cult we were a part of for a long time. We have not seen anyone from there for a long time and have not seen any of their cars since we left. (We have been gone for over 5 years.) While he was following it, that car ran over something and it threw it at his windshield with enough force to crack the windshield on the driver’s side. I have been praying for deliverance for David from this cult’s beliefs–though part of his deliverance is tied to recognizing the error we were in because he hasn’t seen it all yet. I have ordered the Arise, Arise, Arise oil and the Warrior oil from Scent of Heaven–the day after the pictures came and plan on doing some serious anointing once they arrive! (Now, just so y’all know, I still have things that need breakthroughs on too when it comes to my experience with this group. I have been healed of so many things–I believe for me is that there is a call for me to awaken more fully spiritually and emotionally. I would say this is the one thing my husband and I have in common as far as breakthrough and deliverance.)
@ Christine: praying and agreeing with you for the LORD’s healing and powerful touch in your and all the other people respresented here.
Immediately I thought of Psalm 91 when I asked Abba how to pray for you. Isn’t the LORD amazing how your family’s spiritual
discernment is skyrocketing! Love revelation and strategy dreams. He is bypassing the mind and targeting the heart, revealing truth and shining light into darkness. Sometimes cats represent witchcraft or a seductive spirit. The LORD will show you what this means. I feel very encouraged for you, as you trust in Messiah Jesus to deliver your household.
Praying over you and your family: Psalms 119:41 (NET): “May I experience Your loyal love, O LORD, and Your deliverance, as You promised.”
Also, some authors who have written resouces about cleaning our spiritual houses came to mind that can help people conduct an inventory of their lives life pinpoint if there is anything that is keeping a door open to the enemy: Chuck Pierce, Perry Stone, Ron Phillips, and Francis MacNutt. I know there are many spiritual resouces but these are ones I have read and believe line up with scripture.
Can’t wait to hear your testimony along with others touched by D4Y. Sounds like you have a very powerful walk with the LORD and He has done so much for you, beloved. You are His and He alone is the Father Who never disappoints.
Well I don’t have anything to offer right now either but agree with Dr. Mel especially regarding Psalm 91. I hate to say these stories do make me feel a little better with what my family is going through. I won’t write them all out but the dreams we’re having are demonic also and I even experienced diminished eye sight for several days along with extreme headaches. I tried to attribute them to some issues I have but I don’t believe they are now. I declared through one day that I would not lose my sight and would see what God has for me. My eyes returned to normal the next day. The following day I read a book regarding intercession and I got a major revelation on what I have intermittently experienced for several years. I have often had thoughts or feelings that I couldn’t relate to and I truly didn’t know what to do with them. I would try to own them or figure out what I might be doing wrong that would cause them and it just caused confusion and condemnation. In this book, the author explained exactly what I’d experienced and it was feeling what others were actually feeling and then could be used to interceed for them. I’ve understood during a disaster like the Oklahoma bombing and Katrina feeling grief and fear, etc but other feelings have at times overwhelmed me. This is not just a burden or sympathy, it’s actually feeling what someone else is feeling. I’m curious if that is just a normal thing with intercessors or not? Does any one else experience this?
One other point-recently Chuck Pierce has said that we are in a season that we will be able to see our enemy and we will receive strategy to overcome. We are in the decade of AYIN – His eye will guide. It seems like many are seeing the enemy in their dreams and visions. I pray that we all be filled with boldness to take our rightful authority over the enemy and that His peace flood our minds and homes.
@Judy B: Amen! Thank you for sharing your experiences. Yes, the LORD will give us a glimpse of how others are feeling or being afflicted in order that we pray with understanding. The scripture about having the eyes our hearts enlightened comes to mind. Also, makes me wonder about what Jesus felt when he prayed, as He prayed a lot and was an example of a beautiful intercessor. What He must gave felt and seen while praying and groaning for others. I can imagine how He prayed when Satan asked to sift Peter as wheat. Jesus as our Great High Priest can emphathize with our weaknesses. I am so greatful that He intercedes for us now at the right hand of the Father. These are some thoughts. Your reflections and question really sparked me:)
When I started having “alerts” in my spirit to pray, I was very unsettled and startled at first. One example in particular: my heart started to feel “strange-scary.”
I knew it was either the LORD getting my attention or I needed to go to the ED. I confided in a very special friend steeped in faith and she said, “I think God is asking you to pray over someone’s heart.” I was immediately at peace and started praying in the spirit with my hand on my heart. It happened several more times. Then a couple of days later, I got a call that a lady I knew (somewhat) was admitted and was in critical condition due to a rare physical heart issue. I began praying and then was led to call her voicemail and pray. Her husband played the prayer on speakerphone. After I prayed, I could not drive for about an hour. The power of God left me feeling, um, honored and in awe; shaking. She is now TOTALLY HEALED and gives all glory to God. Her heart literally stopped in the middle of the night due to an extremely rare condition that can surface days within the postpartum period. We have the same name and are about the same age. We are now friends. I LOVE YOU, Jesus.
Sometimes the LORD will give intercessor/obervant dream, thinking patterns, visions, etc in order that we pray as though we are there and are the targets of prayer. The difference is the view-point: praying for those we “see” far up in the sky on a plane that is going down in a nose-dive verses actually being one of the people on the plane experiencing the nose dive.
How great is Abba’s trust in you, Judy B, as He reveals His secrets to you and trusts you to pray with your whole heart. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences. I am greatly encouraged by what you shared.
Isn’t our God amazing? Now when I sense something, I ask Him “who” it is for or I would be spending many hours worried or distressed about something that feels like my own affliction but is just an “alert” to intrcede. Selah. I feel so honored to pray.
Praying over you: Father, I thank You that You have given Judy a new song in her heart. A song of praise that glorifies Your Holy Name. She is couragous in battle, as she plants the Tribe of Judah flag on the mountains of victory. Staking out new territory and so humbly carrying the train of Your robe, Jesus. May she play the tamberine like Miriam and sing, as she sees that the horse and the rider have been thrown into the sea. In Jesus name, Amen.
Thanks Julie and Melijen! I aprreciate your insights, prayers and comments! 🙂
AH, the intercessors heart and walk … it’s just amazing how many people Abba is moving on this way in this hour. I remember one time in life my son was about to make a terrible, terrible decision. After I tried with everything in me to reason with him and he walked out the door, the Holy Spirit showed the path of sorrow he would walk. I cried literally all night … my pillow was soaking wet. These 21 years … not shed a tear. And now, after he has finally decided that God’s way is the best way afterall, I have this season to draw on as the Holy Spirit gently wooes him back. I am saying that the Lord uses alllllllll of these things to work together for His good … we just walk with Him and let Him lead.
For instance, Christine, I would bet that Abba fully intends to use this experience in order to raise your family up to be mighty warriors against the forces of darkeness.
Just as He showed me that Reyna’s husband has a high call on his life … that’s why the enemy is trying to take him out before he is aware of it. That guy, once anointed, is going to be DANGEROUS for God! 🙂
@Julie … yes, dear one, you have the prophetic intercessors call … “Jesus wept” and so shall we.
Of course, we will also rejoice together. There is nothing quite like the laughter that follows a season of intense warfare … I am sure everyone here can say a hearty AMEN! to that one.
For the week-end visit:
Abba, our Loving Father, we pray thank You for Your wisdom. We thank You for those You lead by Your Holy Spirit into fellowship. May this time together be both refreshing and fruitful for your Frontline Warriors. I ask You, Holy Spirit, to release dozens and even hundreds of angels into the household this weekend. Angels of refreshment, angels of revelation, warring angels, angels of fresh ideas and implementation, angels that remove boundries in a quick work, angels of impartation. May the unity in the household be so profound that DrMel, Meghan and Allen are even amazed and energized by it. May there be a fresh impartation of Divine Wisdom and Holiness as they break Bread with one another and with You. Carry us all HIGHER, Father God, so that we might bring a new level of honor to place at the feet of Your Throne.
