A Vision From a Distance

I wanted to share something that was conveyed to me through my wifes mother by someone in her church. They live in the north part of Alabama and were in prayer one night for our church. The lady had never been here or seen our church but she began describing to my mother in law what she saw in her spirit. She described the layout of our church exactly and said she saw people lined up waiting to get in. Now, I had never talked to her or shared with my mother in law what the Lord had shown me in the past. But, there have been several occasions where I have seen in my spirit this church and town overrun with people coming because of what God is doing in this church. I have even seen details that were so clear that it seemed as though it were happening now.

I have never been more content in Christ than I am right now. All I want is a greater measure of Him in my life and whatever He wants to do with me is fine. I am not looking for numbers because what God does will be more than a number. There is a spiritual awakening coming and it is starting with a hunger for God and His word. God will take us through a process of stripping things away and bringing us to a place of utter dependence upon Him. Beloved, hear this one thing: There is no amount of sacrifice, suffering and surrendering that we go through on earth that we will not be eternally grateful for in heaven! God will see us through by His Holy Spirit and bring us into the fullness of His son Jesus Christ.

2009 The Year of Repositioning

I have received a prophetic word from the Lord for 2009. I spirit is literally leaping within me at what God has spoken. 2009 will be the year that God miraculously begins repositioning this church in many areas. This has already been happening in some areas but things are going to get turned up even more this year. The biggest area that God has already started repositioning us is spiritually. An intimacy and utter dependence on Him is and has been being established in the majority of hearts here. This is the biggest area that God wants to continue to reposition us in. Without this then we have nothing to offer but a dry religion and a lot of words. This area will continue as we truly grow into the full measure of Jesus Christ.
Another big area of repositioning will be in the area of relationships. Relationships that have just seemed to be draining and unfruitful God will move to severe those ties. However, He will reposition us in relationships that truly birth the life of God in hearts. I believe this is the cry of every believers heart; Lord, use me to impact someone else with Your love!!! This year there will be a big shift in relationships so that God can use the vessels that He has been preparing this past year to translate life and freedom into the lives of others.
Another area of repositioning is emotionally. God is ready to reset a lot of people from feelings of guilt, depression, anxiety, hopelessness and defeat to feelings of innocence, joy, peace, hope, and victory.
I believe we will see breakthroughs in areas that christians have been living in for many many years. My spirit just keeps shouting GET READY GET READY GET READY for the repositioning that is coming to your life!!!
