TEAR DOWN the WALLS" - A Vision -by David Stansell

TEAR DOWN the WALLS" - A Vision
-by David Stansell.

I also had a vision in 2003 that spoke of a change in the Church.

I saw a red brick building. It was a church building. The roof was 
rotten, the wood in the walls was rotten. The remedy was to 
remove all the wood in the building. It needed to be replaced. It 
could not be repaired.

Well, this meant that the brick walls would have to be torn down 
as they were not in shape to support themselves without a 
connection to the wood. In very poor shape.

So I saw the building reduced to the foundation stones. I was ready 
to see a new building build on this old foundation.

However the Spirit of God spoke. "Take out the foundation. It is 
not substantial enough to support the building that I am ready to 
build on this ground."

The building that God is ready to build (Bride) is to be so much 
glorious than our present understanding. However, *are* we ready 
for Him to take down the present building? And take it down all 
the way to the original dirt? Our human side wants to hold onto 
something that is recognizable from our past. It then becomes 
that leaven that brings back all the old junk of the previous life.

Then I heard, "I am looking for a 'General Contractor' who will build
according to the blue print." Then I understood that He would only 
entrust the construction of this building to someone who is fully 
submitted to do all and not less that all that comes from the throne 
of Heaven. We are not the architect. It is not our job to design 
the building.

Shortly after the vision I was in Acts 5. In verse 32, I was over-
whelmed with the truth that we do *not* have the ministry of the 
HOLY SPIRIT because we do *not* obey his voice. (Jer 7: 22)...

God is ready for His bride to operate in all the power that Jesus 
had while He was on this earth (Scriptures say this) when we are 
ready to relate to God the same way Jesus related to the Father.

As I look at church history, I see that God gave men truth and 
they used their minds to ADD more truth. And then this new truth 
brought death to the truth of God. Where are the people who can 
be obedient only to the simple truths brought by the Holy Spirit?

The Standard of the Lord

I see the standard of the Lord raise High above the nations. The banner is Kingdom Of God, waving in the Spirit of God that is blowing over the nations.

I see the tribes of Israel being  form around the standard of the Lord. Each with it standard being raised over the tribe. These are places where the Lord are diving His people to the safety in the coming storm, the Strom is here and around us, it is increasing in intensification, you look to the north or the south for peace and find none. You will look to the east and the west and find no peace. It will only appear worse, and it is getting worse, so  my people will seek me and I will lead them to the places of safety. The places of safety marked with the standards of the tribes, the alignment of Army of the Lord.

AIDS ORPHAN"s Projec

If I may, I would like to that a little of your time and discuss a burden that the Lord has place upon my heart, and what I am seeking to accomplish my mission from HIM. It is the reason that

I was at Keys conference, seeking the vehicles to accomplish His mission. I found what I believe is the vehicle and the door way to accomplish the goal.

First is the assignment (reason), it is to James 1:27
²⁷Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself unstained by the world.

In keeping with the Lord through a divine appointment in January,   HE brought Horizon International into my life and their mission of dealing with aids orphans in Africa, meeting with Bob Pearson and hearing his story and the vision, I accepted the burden of building orphanages in Africa. This not one or two, what is on the Lords heart is to build many throughout nations of Africa to address this issue, which will require a mass amount of money to accomplish the need. You can, if you like look at their website www.horizoninternationalinc.com .  Thus, I call this the purpose.

Second, my trip to Keys conference, I was looking for the vehicle that would be able to fund this Kingdom project, which I believe I found. It is a door way into the inner circle of banking and funding for humanitarian projects, it has been used since 1944 to rebuild Europe after the World War II. I have been trading the markets since 2002, and trading the Forex market in Swiss since 2006. However, this vehicle is devised for the purpose that the Lord has on His mind and can produce the return to accomplish the task at hand. I am not sure if you have  met David A. Roth, www.endowmentbuilders.org, David introduced me to vehicle at Keys, another divine appointment.

So you are wondering what is on my mind, simple, I am looking for another divine appointment, I often say that REASON + PUROSE = NEED, it is not my need but HIS, to enter the market place I need to co labor with people that have a like spirit for this project, as I raise the standard for this project, I believe the Lord will speck to these KINGDOM minded people.

This is not a donation or giving to accomplish this task. This is a investment, to take the money out of the world market place for Kingdom projects. To accomplish this, we need people of wealth to co labor. People who will hear the Lord, these KINGDOM  people must be business and investment minded to understand the process.

This is a huge move forward for the KINGDOM, to address these projects on a national level;  to effect the political and business mountains.

Thus, at 4:30 in the morning the other night the Lord brought you before me, I am not sure what your role could be, investor or one who would lead me to a divine appointment. Both of you were divine appointments for me at KEYS and the airport.

I look forward to co labor with you on this project or other ones that the Lord may send our way.

 Those who respond I will send  a copy of an eBook that I wrote several years ago:  FORERUNNER…Reclaiming the Kingdom. I write under a pen name of Cyrus Kairos.

Be blessed and prosper, and enjoyed your time on the beach.

Shalom

2011 ACPE Word of the Lord

Cindy Jacobs:

2011 ACPE Word of the Lord

Each year, the Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders (ACPE) meets to seek the Lord for the prophetic word. This is a team of respected prophets who have the conviction that they are an Acts 13:1-3 model. This passage notes that it was the Holy Spirit giving the word as a consensus among the group and not just to one prophet. So, even though this is a compilation of the prophecies that we have each brought to the round table meeting, it was the general consensus of the ACPE members that the Holy Spirit was speaking the following prophetic words to us.

The ACPE has met now since 1999. This year, for the first time, we invited a group of emerging young leaders to join us. As a result, we probably had the most powerful time of seeking the Lord that we have ever known. At the end of the meeting, a time of impartation took place.

While we are calling this a prophecy for 2011, it is to be understood that the time frames for the fulfillment of prophecies cannot only be confined to a calendar year period, thus this constitutes more of a seasonal prophetic word.

It is also a given that, in some cases, the obedience of the people to respond can either delay, change, or alter what we have seen by the Spirit during this time.

The Year of Transitions

This will either be a year of open heavens or a year of the perfect storm.

The number 11 has the Biblical meaning of transitions. 2011 is the year where we are transitioning from one place to another. Where we will end up at the end of this time depends, in many regards, on how we respond to the leading of the Holy Spirit.

2011 will be a year of great pressure and stress, particularly, the first three months when it will seem as if we are in a toe-to-toe battle with the forces of evil.

This is a Tipping Point Year

If, in the middle of the pressure of the season, we faint and lose heart, the scale will tip away from us and there is a possibility of great loss and defeat.

The Year of the Straits

The number 11 can be likened to places in the earth such as the Straits of Gibraltar between Spain and Morocco. We will, at times, feel constricted, but the narrowing of the way will only cause us to go to the new place that God has for us in the season if we do not fail the test during the pressure.

The Birth Canal

Another analogy that the Lord gave us was the number 11 is like a birth canal. The baby being born is going from the comfort of the womb to the stress and discomfort of being born into a new, large life.

Dreaming Dreams

Joseph shared his dreams with his 11 brothers; represented by 11 stars in Genesis 37:9 and it caused great relational stress. God will pour out a season of dreams and visions this year even among the very young. Watch out for relational stress and keep your heart right in the middle of it.

The Year of Great Expectations

Expect the unexpected in this coming year.

Hebrews 11:11 is key: By faith, Sarah herself also received strength to conceive seed, and she bore a child when she was past the age, because she judged Him faithful who had promised.

Expect a miracle! God wants to break the barrenness in your life of hope deferred. Many have given up on their dreams and downsized what they believe for because of the times. God's Kingdom is an ever-increasing Kingdom and He is for advance and not retreat.

This is not a time to compromise what God has said to you, but rather to believe that all things are possible. God is not a man that He would lie. If He said he would do something, He has not changed His mind.

A Time of Preparation, Going Deeper into God and Intimacy

New assignments will be passed out in this year of transition for those who do not draw back in the season of testing and fire. Go deeper in God and draw refreshing from His presence and you will make it to your new place of advancement and anointing.

Proverbs 20:5: Knowing what is right is like deep water in the heart; a wise person draws from the well within.

Creative Miracles

The level of the miraculous will increase with the Creator loosing miracles of creation that will directly oppose the spirits of humanism and intellectualism.

The Restoration of the Tabernacle of David

Great emphasis will be upon worship again this year. Worship is the key! Many new 24-hour houses of worship will spring up across the world and result in an open heaven over nations and many souls saved. It is harvest time!

Acts 15:16-17: After this I will return and will rebuild the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down; I will rebuild its ruins, and I will set it up; So that the rest of mankind may seek the Lord, even all the Gentiles who are called by My Name, says the Lord who does all things.

Great Harvest of those in the Arts/Entertainment Field

Extraordinary moves of God will occur in the entertainment and motion picture industry. Bold, new, unashamed voices will arise and many will listen to their testimonies.

Word for the United States

The nation hangs in the balance and this is not a time to grow weary of praying and acting on behalf of righteousness and justice. Don't let the pressure of the season cause you to retreat into entertainment rather than standing on top of what is happening around you.

We must watch for terrorist attacks as many are having dreams and visions of coming attacks.

One of the illustrations given to us was the phrase, "Are you ready to rumble?" This is used among wrestling aficionados as the match begins. It does more than alert the contestants that the match will start; it also creates an excited expectation in the crowd. God is asking the Christians in America today, "Are you ready to rumble?" The game is at hand and there needs to be a climax of excitement as we anticipate God's next move in the land.

2011 is one of the most critical years in the nation's history and the foundations are burning and are in danger of being destroyed. We must fast and pray and take extraordinary measures to "rumble" both the heavens and the earth.

The Eleventh Hour 11-11-11

This date will have a special significance in this "eleventh hour" time frame.

John 11:11 says: Lazarus our friend has fallen asleep, but I go that I may awaken him from slumber.

The Mayflower Compact was signed on 11-11, 1620 and God is looking for a new generation of reformers who will make a covenant with God and others to stand and fight to awaken this nation in this dire moment of history.

Proverbs 11:11: By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted, but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.

World

There is a worldwide student-led volunteer movement being birthed across the face of the earth. Satan is going to try and start wars such as he did when the first student volunteer movement started around the turn of the 20th century. World War I effectually shut down the movement as students went to war at times against each other. We must pray against the starting of a third world war, as satan wants to escalate world events for His purposes.

Psalm 110:3: In the day of Your power your youth shall be volunteers.

Korea

Particular prayer needs to take place for Korea as one of the greatest missions movements is destined to come out of this nation that will go to the ends of the earth.

We also strongly felt that President Lee should stand firm against North Korea's aggression.

Middle East

A more widespread persecution will arise against the Believers if we do not begin to intercede for the Middle East. However, there will be a move of God of the youth in nations such as Syria, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia who will not love their lives unto death.

Economy

We must intercede against hyperinflation that will strangle the ability of people of give to world missions.

Intellectual Properties

A great release of new wealth will come from ideas given from God in the form of intellectual properties. A new creative anointing of ideas for those who will use the wealth for the advancement of God's Kingdom.

Children

We are on the verge of a great Children's Awakening that will span the globe. Child evangelists will begin to preach in churches and large arenas and thousand will be saved and healed.

The New Season of 2011: The Best Year Yet by Russell Durose

The New Season of 2011: The Best Year Yet by Russell Durose

By Russell Durose

I believe we have moved into the next season, where the sound of the Lord of rain has come, and rain has fallen. The Lord spoke to me the other day about His Ways of restoration. We are so performance and "work" orientated that we drive at the things, trying to produce something. We who think about God moving, try to work something. I used to know a pastor who used to introduce the worship by saying "now let's create the atmosphere." In a sense this expression is laughable, but it is not. We do create the atmosphere of God when we worship because He inhabits the praise of His People.

Rest is Moving

The Lord is bringing us into REST. I had to think about that rest. When some leader tells you, to rest, does that mean you sit on the pew? No. It means you are moving...read Hebrews 2 and 4. You see that REST is MOVING AND CONQUERING your promise. You sort of rest in your faith, that is MOVE IN OBEDIENCE in the time that your promise is about to manifest. We used to pray shouting at the top of our voice, but now in this season, we literally move into a new attitude, what we do we literally spend our time listening and thanking the Lord. Yes, we go through our Jordan believing the Promise, time has come to MOVE INTO IT. How do we move into it?

We literally see God command Joshua to make the Levites put their feet into the water of Jordan, and God opens up the way, making the way not only available but DRY. 2 miracles. Yes, your way into your promises are MIRACLES only performed by God and there is not any way humanly speaking that it would happen. All we do is walk in the way that God opens, till we reach the other side and He closes the way behind us. He provides us cities and homes to dwell in. Where are we going? We are going into a land filled with good things.

We have lived maybe a 7 year cycle of need, lack and a lot of learning curves. We have sometimes despaired of even our ministry calling, we have experienced wholesale abuses, and even struggled to keep the vision before us. But now God says "I am opening a new way for you. I am opening up that which is a natural barrier to you moving into your calling, your inheritance. The Lord says it is time for you to move into it." There is no great fanfare in that...we just do what is natural, we move into the miraculous dry land that He provides. We are surrounded by the water of impossibility we are moving through a miracle. The Lord says "you are going to move into that for which you have dreamed of for so long. " Sounds good news.

The Church Should be an Organism not Organization

Obedience opens the way for the impossible. But we move when we know our season has come. I believe that corporately we are being taken to a new level of signs and wonders. The church needs to become an organism that lives not an organization that works. We have sometimes based ministry on title not function and have overlooked the beauty of the functioning gifts which bring life. We have seen our brothers and sisters as people we serve and work with rather than who we RELATE AND INTERACT ON A LOVE LEVEL. I am learning these now, and seeing that without this enriching in my spirit, this year shall not be what God has spoken to me . Yes, God announces to you...this year is going to be the BEST YET. What do you do with that?

You may say: "hmmm...I do not see that....I don't believe it...." then you're doing what the Israelites did on the banks of Jordan, you are in unbelief and negativism. You shall stay on the wrong side of your miracle...your sea, your river won't open for you. You'll go round in circles in your wilderness. You'll go almost back to Egypt...the world...God will allow it...to show you...that you have missed a generational blessing. But there is something about God though we must remember, that we are not in the Old Testament, we are in the New, and He always, in His Mercy, when we have had enough of wandering, bring us back to Jordan and say: "OK, I am going to open it for you, are you ready?"

Receive the word...2011 is going to be YOUR BEST YEAR...receive it, and see your "Jordan" open before you!

Shalom

A Time of Transition: Open Up Your Heart For Fresh Vision

John Belt:

A Time of Transition: Open Up Your Heart For Fresh Vision

In these coming months many are in transition laying hold of fresh vision. We must begin to see ourselves in the role we will be in a year from now, a decade from now and even further. As we see ourselves in the place that God has for us, we need to understand the price we will be paying and the lifestyle we will be living at that time. As we begin to live in this way now, it will usher us into the determined place that God has for us.

Another Level of Transition

Habakkuk 3:19 The Lord God is my strength, and He will make my feet like hinds' feet, and He will make me to walk upon mine high places.

We are in a time of transition and a time of fresh vision. God is taking things to another level as we press through into a new place in Him. Transitions are healthy and good for us. When we allow ourselves to be stretched into a new place we will experience fresh joys on the other side.

It is important that we open our hearts up to fresh vision from the Lord. It is too easy to go through life without any definite direction. If we allow this to happen we feel like we are in a hurry to head nowhere fast. A life without vision is a life that is destined to be a life without purpose. We must have vision to have purpose. Our number one vision is the Lord.

The Lord is fulfilling in Himself. When we find ourselves engaged in Him, abiding in Him, we should also be awakened to His heart's desires. In His presence He pours out vision, purpose with an accompanying hope that is fulfilling to our lives. We should make the secret place with God our favorite place and out of this place discover a fresh vision and hope.

Practical Steps

Matthew 14:28-29 And Peter answered Him and said, "Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water." So He said, "Come." And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus.

There is much noise in the world. The anxiousness, cares of this life and focus on "things" opens us up to noise that chokes out the fruitfulness of His Word in us. Anxiousness kills joy and suffocates the life of God. We are called to live in the present, not in the future. The future is only a second away. Now is present, this very moment. We need not only vision to see the plans that God has for us in the future, but the ability to begin living the vision out right now. Decree and prophesy your future, this is the first step to living it out right now.

We release God's life and plans with our very own tongue. The next step is to put practical legs to what you just spoke. We must begin to move into this next step. Many prophesy and receive prophecies for years but never activate these things because of not knowing the best way to take practical steps of faith. Yield to the Holy Spirit, speak a word of life over yourself then take some kind of step into it in the natural.

Many wait for and expect natural manifestation of their dreams without putting work, responsibility and effort into that dream. We must wholly invest ourselves – spirit, soul and body – into the dreams that He puts in our hearts. It is not enough to dream, get a revelation and vision. Get it, then just do it.

Step Into Your Vision

Habakkuk 2:2 Then the Lord answered me and said: "Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it."

Dream Big. Take a step. A small step is still a step. Don't compare yourself with others. Don't even try to walk the same path that has worked for others. God has a custom-made path for each of us. Don't let others dictate to you who you are, how you are to do things and what things are supposed to look like. Be unique. Be different as you follow what the Lord drops in your heart. No one else will ever do something the way you will do it. We are all originals. Our paths are particular to who we are.

Be content with God's pleasure in what you are doing. Discover the vision God has for you. Allow Him to breathe on it with His Spirit. Find a joyful outlet for what He has put inside of you. Just be who He has created you to be, for no one else can. See yourself in the place He has called you to. Dream on it. Meditate on it. Give yourself to it as unto the Lord. Serve Him and others in the vision He calls you to, making Him Your creative Instructor. The Holy Spirit is the Helper and will help you. He who has done a good work in you will complete it.

Get Your Vision & Run With God!
